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