Ben Sira 46:4

4 Was not the sun held back by his hand? And did not one day become as long as two?

Ben Sira 46:4 In-Context

2 How glorious he was when he lifted his hands and stretched out his sword against the cities!

3 Who before him ever stood so firm? For he waged the wars of the Lord.

4 Was not the sun held back by his hand? And did not one day become as long as two?

5 He called upon the Most High, the Mighty One, when enemies pressed him on every side,

6 and the great Lord answered him with hailstones of mighty power. He hurled down war upon that nation, and at the descent of Beth-horon he destroyed those who resisted, so that the nations might know his armament, that he was fighting in the sight of the Lord; for he wholly followed the Mighty One.
