Sirach 33:8 CPDV

⁶  A friend who is a whisperer is like an untamed horse: he neighs under anyone who sits upon him.

⁷  Why does day follow after day, and light follow after light, and year follow after year, in accord with the sun?

⁸  By the knowledge of the Lord, they were arranged, after the sun was made, in keeping with his command.

⁹  And so, the seasons changed, with their feast days. And according to them, they celebrated the feast days, in their hour.

¹⁰  Some of them, God exalted and magnified. And some of them, he set amid the ordinary days. And all men are from the ground, and from the earth, from which Adam was created.
