Sirach 27:30DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 30 of 33
"A mischievous counsel shall be rolled back upon the author, and he shall not know from whence it cometh to him."
In context
28If one cast a stone on high, it will fall upon his own head: and the deceitful stroke will wound the deceitful.
29He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that setteth a stone for his neighbour, shall stumble upon it: and he that layeth a snare for another, shall perish in it.
30A mischievous counsel shall be rolled back upon the author, and he shall not know from whence it cometh to him.
31Mockery and reproach are of the proud, and vengeance as a lion shall lie in wait for him.
32They shall perish in a snare that are delighted with the fall of the just: and sorrow shall consume them before they die.
