Sirach 46:4

4 Wasn't the sun restrained by his hand, and one day lasted for two?

Sirach 46:4 In-Context

2 How glorious he was when he raised his hands and when he extended his sword against cities!
3 Who among those who came before stood as he did? Indeed, he fought the Lord's wars.
4 Wasn't the sun restrained by his hand, and one day lasted for two?
5 He called upon the Most High, the mighty one, when his enemies pressed in on him from every side, and the great Lord responded to him with hailstones of mighty power.
6 He rushed headlong against a nation in battle, and on a hill he destroyed those who opposed him, so that the nations might know how well-equipped he was, because his war was fought in the Lord's presence. Indeed, he was a follower of the mighty one.
