Sirach 50:21-28 World English Bible (WEB)

21. And he bowed himself down in worship the second time, To declare the blessing from the Most High.

22. And now bless you⌃ the God of all, Which everywhere does great things, Which exalts our days from the womb, And deals with us according to his mercy.

23. May he grant us joyfulness of heart, And that peace may be in our days in Israel for the days of eternity:

24. To intrust his mercy with us; And let him deliver us in his time!

25. With two nations is my soul vexed, And the third is no nation:

26. They that sit upon the mountain of Samaria, and the Philistines, And that foolish people that dwells in Sichem.

27. I have written in this book the instruction of understanding and knowledge, I Jesus, the son of Sirach Eleazar, of Jerusalem, Who out of his heart poured forth wisdom.

28. Blessed is he that shall be exercised in these things; And he that lays them up in his heart shall become wise.
