Ben Sira 16:8 In-Context

6 Many such things hath my eyes seen, and greater things than these my ear hath heard.
7 In the congregation of sinners a fire shall be kindled, and in an unbelieving nation wrath shall dame out.
8 The ancient giants did not obtain pardon for their sine, who were destroyed trusting to their own strength:
9 And he spared not the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for the pride of their word.
10 He had not pity on them, destroying the whole nation that extolled them- selves in their sine.
