21 No one should ask why things are as they are;everything in creation has its purpose.
22 His blessings overflow like the Nile,enriching the world in a fertile flood.
23 He turns fresh water into salt water,and he turns his anger on the nations.
24 For the devout, his ways are straight;for the wicked, they are laid with traps.
25 From the beginning he has made good things for the goodand terrible things for sinners.
26 The basic needs for life are these:water, fire, iron, and salt,flour, honey, and milk,wine, clothing, and oil.
27 All these things are good for those who are devout,but they turn into evils for sinners.
