Sirach 48:10-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
10 who were prepared at the appointed time[a]
to calm wrath before it breaks out in fury,
to turn the hearts of parents to their children
and to restore the tribes of Jacob.(A)
11 Happy are those who saw you
and were adorned[b] in love!
For we also shall surely live.[c]
Elisha
12 When Elijah was enveloped in the whirlwind,
Elisha was filled with his spirit.
He performed twice as many signs
and marvels with every utterance of his mouth.[d]
Never in his lifetime did he tremble before any ruler,
nor could anyone intimidate him at all.(B)
