Sirach 49:6-8
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
6 who set fire to the chosen city of the sanctuary,
and made its streets desolate,
as Jeremiah had foretold.[a]
7 For they had maltreated him,
who even in the womb had been consecrated a prophet,
to pluck up and ruin and destroy,
and likewise to build and to plant.
8 It was Ezekiel who saw the vision of glory,
which God[b] showed him above the chariot of the cherubim.
