In context
27All these things are for good to the godly: So to the sinners they are turned into evil.
28There be spirits that are created for vengeance, Which in their fury lay on sore strokes; In the time of destruction they pour out their force, And appease the wrath of him that made them.
— Sirach 39:29 —
30Teeth of wild beasts, and scorpions, serpents, And the sword, punishing the wicked to destruction,
31Shall rejoice in his commandment, And they shall be ready upon earth, when need is; And when their time is come, they shall not go beyond his word.
