Ben Sira 21:9

9 An assembly of the wicked is like a bundle of tow, and their end is a blazing fire.

Ben Sira 21:9 In-Context

7 The mighty in speech are widely known; when they slip, the sensible person knows it.

8 Whoever builds his house with other people's money is like one who gathers stones for his burial mound.

9 An assembly of the wicked is like a bundle of tow, and their end is a blazing fire.

10 The way of sinners is paved with smooth stones, but at its end is the pit of Hades.

11 Whoever keeps the law controls his thoughts, and the fulfillment of the fear of the Lord is wisdom.
