Sirach 47:9-11
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
9 He placed singers before the altar,
to make sweet melody with their voices.[a]
10 He gave beauty to the festivals,
and arranged their times throughout the year,[b]
while they praised God’s[c] holy name,
and the sanctuary resounded from early morning.
11 The Lord took away his sins,
and exalted his power[d] for ever;
he gave him a covenant of kingship
and a glorious throne in Israel.
