Wisdom 16:19-21

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ And at another time the fire, above its own power, burned in the midst of water, to destroy the fruits of a wicked land.

²⁰ Instead of which things thou didst feed thy people with the food of angels, and gavest them bread from heaven prepared without labour; having in it all that is delicious, and the sweetness of every taste.

²¹ For thy sustenance shewed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man's will, it was turned to what every man liked.
