Ben Sira 50:22

22 Now then, give praise to the God of the universe, who has done great things everywhere, who brings us up from the time we are born, and deals with us mercifully.

Ben Sira 50:22 In-Context

20 Then Simon came down from the altar, raised his hands over the whole assembly of Israel, and reverently pronounced the blessing from the Lord,
21 while the people bowed a second time in worship to receive that blessing from the Most High.
22 Now then, give praise to the God of the universe, who has done great things everywhere, who brings us up from the time we are born, and deals with us mercifully.
23 May he give us happiness and allow us to have peace in Israel forever.
24 May he continue his mercy to us and rescue us in our time of need.
