Sirach 35:22

22 gives justice for the righteous, and executes judgment. Indeed, the Lord will never delay, nor will he be patient with them until he crushes the power of the unmerciful,

Sirach 35:22 In-Context

20 Those who serve with goodwill will be accepted, and their prayer will reach to the clouds.
21 The prayer of the humble passes through the clouds, and it will never stop until it draws near to God. It will never withdraw until the Most High takes notice,
22 gives justice for the righteous, and executes judgment. Indeed, the Lord will never delay, nor will he be patient with them until he crushes the power of the unmerciful,
23 until he exacts vengeance on the nations, until he removes the multitude of abusive people and shatters the authority of the unrighteous,
24 until he repays individuals according to their deeds and the works of human beings according to their thoughts,
