Sirach 50:26 CPDV

²⁴  And now, pray to the God of all, who has accomplished great things over all the earth, who has increased our days from our mother's womb, and who has acted toward us in accord with his mercy.

²⁵  May he give us joyfulness in heart, and may there be peace in our days, in Israel for unending days,

²⁶  so that Israel may trust the mercy of God to be with us, in order to free us in his days.

²⁷  Two nations my soul hates, and a third, which I hate, is not a nation:

²⁸  those who sit upon mount Seir, and the Philistines, and the foolish people who live at Shechem.
