Sirach 47:11-13
Revised Standard Version
11 The Lord took away his sins,
and exalted his power[a] for ever;
he gave him the covenant of kings
and a throne of glory in Israel.
Solomon
12 After him rose up a wise son
who fared amply[b] because of him;
13 Solomon reigned in days of peace,
and God gave him rest on every side,
that he might build a house for his name
and prepare a sanctuary to stand for ever.
