Wisdom of Ben Sira 45:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 with the sacred vestment of gold and violet,
and purple, the work of an embroiderer;
with the oracle of judgment, the sacred lots;
11 with scarlet thread, the product of an artisan;
with precious stones engraved like seals,
mounted in gold, the work of a jeweler,
to commemorate with inscriptions
each of the tribes of Israel;
12 with a gold diadem upon his turban,
inscribed with the seal of consecration,
majestic ornamentation, stupendous work,
a delight of rich adornment to the eyes.
