Sirach 11:21

21 Don't be amazed at the works of sinners, but trust in the Lord and continue your work, because it is easy in God's sight to make the poor person quickly and suddenly rich.

Sirach 11:21 In-Context

19 When they say, "I've found rest, and now I'll eat of my good things," they don't know when the time when they will leave these things to others and die.
20 Stand by your agreement, devote attention to accomplishing it, and grow old in your work.
21 Don't be amazed at the works of sinners, but trust in the Lord and continue your work, because it is easy in God's sight to make the poor person quickly and suddenly rich.
22 The Lord's blessing is part of the godly person's wages, and God's good pleasure causes a person to flourish very quickly.
23 Don't say, "What do I need? What good things will be mine from now on?"
