Sirach 46:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ He proved to be a reliable prophet
because of his faithfulness,
    and through his words
    he became known as a trustworthy seer.
¹⁶ He called upon the Lord, the mighty one,
    with an offering of a nursing lamb
    when his enemies pressed on him
    from every side.
¹⁷ The Lord thundered from heaven,
    and he made his voice loudly heard.
