Wisdom of Ben Sira 47:9-11

New Catholic Bible

⁹ He assigned singers to stand before the altar
    and to provide sweet melody with their voices.
[And they sang his praise daily.]^[a]
10 He invested the festivals with splendor
    and designated their times throughout the year,
when the Lord’s holy name is praised
    and the sanctuary resounds from the moment of dawn.
¹¹ The Lord took away his sins
    and endowed him forever with great power.
By a covenant he gave him the kingship
    and a glorious throne in Israel.
