Ecclesiasticus 40:13-16 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

13. The riches of the unjust shall be dried up like a river, and shall pass sway a noise like a great thunder in rain.

14. While he openeth his hands he shall rejoice: but transgressors shall pine away in the end.

15. The offspring of the ungodly shall not bring forth many branches, and make a noise as unclean roots upon the top of a rock.

16. The weed growing over every water, and at the bank of the river, shall be pulled up before all grass.
