Sirach 36:17 CPDV

¹⁵  Take pity on Jerusalem, the city of your sanctification, the city of your rest.

¹⁶  Fill Zion with your ineffable words, and fill your people with your glory.

¹⁷  Give testimony to those who have been your creations from the beginning, and lift up the prophecies which the former prophets spoke in your name.

¹⁸  Give a reward to those who endure for you, so that your prophets may be found to be faithful. And heed the prayers of your servants,

¹⁹  in accord with the blessing of Aaron over your people. And direct us in the way of justice, and let all who inhabit the earth know that you are God, the Beholder of all ages.
