Ben Sira 16:6

6 The Lord's flaming anger will break out against a small gathering of sinners or a disobedient nation.

Ben Sira 16:6 In-Context

4 A city's population may grow because of the wisdom of one person, while a whole tribe of lawless people disappears.
5 I have seen such things many times and have heard of even more striking examples.
6 The Lord's flaming anger will break out against a small gathering of sinners or a disobedient nation.
7 He did not forgive those ancient giants who rebelled against him, confident of their own strength.
8 He detested the arrogance of the people among whom Lot lived, and he did not spare them.
