Sirach 43:22
King James VersionSource notes
“A present remedy of all is a mist coming speedily, a dew coming after heat refresheth.”
Context
19The hoarfrost also as salt he poureth on the earth, and being congealed, it lieth on the top of sharp stakes.
20When the cold north wind bloweth, and the water is congealed into ice, it abideth upon every gathering together of water, and clotheth the water as with a breastplate.
21It devoureth the mountains, and burneth the wilderness, and consumeth the grass as fire.
22A present remedy of all is a mist coming speedily, a dew coming after heat refresheth.
23By his counsel he appeaseth the deep, and planteth islands therein.
24They that sail on the sea tell of the danger thereof; and when we hear it with our ears, we marvel thereat.
25For therein be strange and wondrous works, variety of all kinds of beasts and whales created.
