Sirach 47:6-11 World English Bible (WEB)

6. So they glorified him for his ten thousands, And praised him for the blessings of the Lord, In that there was given him a diadem of glory.

7. For he destroyed the enemies on every side, And brought to nothing the Philistines his adversaries, Brake their horn in pieces to this day.

8. In every work of his he gave thanks to the Holy One Most High with words of glory; With his whole heart he sang praise, And loved him that made him.

9. Also he set singers before the altar, And to make sweet melody by their music.

10. He gave comeliness to the feasts, And set in order the seasons to perfection, While they praised his holy name, And the sanctuary sounded from early morning.

11. The Lord took away his sins, And exalted his horn for ever; And gave him a covenant of kings, And a throne of glory in Israel.
