Sirach 24:13-15

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ And he said to me: Let thy dwelling be in Jacob, and thy inheritance in Israel, and take root in my elect.

¹⁴ From the beginning, and before the world, was I created, and unto the world to come I shall not cease to be, and in the holy dwelling place I have ministered before him.

¹⁵ And so was I established in Sion, and in the holy city likewise I rested, and my power was in Jerusalem.
