Ben Sira 50:6 In-Context

4 He considered how to save his people from ruin, and fortified the city against siege.

5 How glorious he was, surrounded by the people, as he came out of the house of the curtain.

6 Like the morning star among the clouds, like the full moon at the festal season;

7 like the sun shining on the temple of the Most High, like the rainbow gleaming in splendid clouds;

8 like roses in the days of first fruits, like lilies by a spring of water, like a green shoot on Lebanon on a summer day;
