Sirach 16:7-9
Common English Bible
7 The Lord didn’t seek reconciliation
with the ancient giants[a]
who rebelled in their might.
8 He didn’t spare Lot’s neighbors,
whom he detested
because of their arrogance.
9 He showed no mercy on a nation
doomed to destruction,
on people who were driven off
because of their sins.[b]
