Sirach 40:6-8 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. There is little or no rest, and sleep is taken from him, as if on a day of keeping watch.

7. He is disturbed by a vision of his heart, as if he had escaped in a day of warfare. In the time of his salvation, he rose up and wondered that there was no fear.

8. This is so with all flesh, from man even to cattle, but upon sinners it is seven times as great.
