Sirach 49:5-7
Common English Bible
5 They gave their power[a] to others
and their glory to a foreign nation,
6 which set fire to Jerusalem, the chosen city, and its sanctuary
and made its streets desolate,
as Jeremiah said.
7 They mistreated him,
even though he had been set apart
from the womb to be a prophet
to uproot, ruin, destroy,
and likewise to build and plant.
