Sirach 35:17–18

The appeal of the lowly traverseth the skies,

And resteth not till it reach ⁽its goal⁽.

It shall not remove till God doth visit,

And ⁽till⁽ the righteous Judge executeth judgement

Yea, the Lord will not tarry,

And the mighty One will not refrain Himself,

Till He smite the loins of the merciless,

And requite vengeance ^[to the arrogant^[;

Till He dispossessthe sceptre of pride,

And the staff of wickedness utterly cut down;
