Sirach 48:3 CPDV

¹  And the prophet Elijah arose like a fire, and his word burned like a torch.

²  He brought a famine upon them, and those who provoked him in their envy became few. For they could not bear the precepts of the Lord.

³  By the word of the Lord, he closed the heavens, and he brought down fire from heaven three times.

⁴  In this way, Elijah was magnified in his wondrous works. So who can say that he is similar to you in glory?

⁵  He raised up a dead man from the grave, from the fate of death, by the word of the Lord God.
