Sirach 46:13–20

The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English VersionOther versions

13Samuel, the prophet of the Lord, ubeloved of his Lord,

Established a kingdom, and vanointed princes over his people.

14By the law of the Lord he judged the congregation,

And the Lord had respect unto Jacob.

15wBy his faithfulness he was found a true prophet,

And by his word he was known to be faithful in vision.

16xHe called upon the imighty Lord,

yWhen his enemies pressed upon him on every side,

When zhe offered the sucking lamb.

17aAnd the Lord thundered from heaven,

And with a great noise made his voice to be heard.

18And he destroyed the rulers of the bTyrians,

And all the princes of the cPhilistines.

19And before his long dsleep ehe made protestations in the sight of the Lord and his anointed,

I have not taken any man’s goods, so much as a shoe:

And fno man did accuse him.

20And gafter his death he prophesied,

And shewed the king his end,

And lift up his voice from the earth in prophecy,

To blot out the wickedness of the people.

XLVII.
