Sirach 45:26 In-Context

24 Therefore, a covenant of peace was established with Phinehas, that he should preside over the holy places and over his people, so that he and his descendants might have the splendor of the priesthood forever.
25 The Lord also made a covenant with David, Jesse's son, from the tribe of Judah; the king's inheritance that passes from son to son only; Aaron's inheritance is also for his descendants.
26 May the Lord grant you peace in your heart, to judge his people justly, so that the good things they have might not vanish and so that their glory might extend to generations to come.
