Sirach 45:11-15 World English Bible (WEB)

11. With twisted scarlet, the work of the craftsman; With precious stones graven like a signet, in a setting of gold, the work of the jeweller, For a memorial engraved in writing, after the number of the tribes of Israel;

12. With a crown of gold upon the mitre, having graven on it, as on a signet, HOLINESS, An ornament of honor, a work of might, The desires of the eyes, goodly and beautiful.

13. Before him there never have been any such; No stranger put them on, but his sons only, and his offspring perpertually.

14. His sacrifices shall be wholly consumed Every day twice continually.

15. Moses consecrated him, And anointed him with holy oil: It was to him for an everlasting covenant, And to his seed, all the days of heaven, To minister to him, and to execute also the priest’s office, And bless his people in his name.
