Listen to Sirach 23:21
21 These people will be punished in the streets of the city, and when they least expect it, they will be seized

Sirach 23:21 In-Context

19 They fear human eyes, but they are unaware that the eye of the Lord are ten thousand times brighter than the sun; they observe all the ways of human beings and look into hidden places
20 Before all things were created, God knew them; so as well after they were finished.
21 These people will be punished in the streets of the city, and when they least expect it, they will be seized
22 So it is with a woman when she is unfaithful to her husband and she presents him with an heir by another man.
23 First, she's disobeyed the Law of the Most High; second, she's wronged her husband; third, she's committed adultery by her illicit sexual behavior and produced children by another man.
