Ecclesiasticus 39:26 Context
24As his wayes are plaine vnto the holy, so are they stumbling blockes vnto the wicked. 25For the good, are good things created from the beginning: so euill things for sinners. 26The principall things for the whole vse of mans life, are water, fire, yron, and salt, floure of wheate, honie, milke, and the blood of the grape, and oyle, and clothing. 27All these things are for good to the godly: so to the sinners they are turned into euill. 28There be spirits that are created for vengeance, which in their furie lay on sore strokes, in the time of destruction they powre out their force, and appease the wrath of him that made them.
