Sirach 49:1-2
Common English Bible

Josiah

49 The memory[a] of Josiah
is like a blend of incense,
    prepared with skill by a perfumer.
It will be sweet in the mouth, like honey,
    like music at a wine-drinking party.
2 He succeeded in turning around
the people,
    and he removed unlawful displays
    of idolatry.
