7Who heardest the rebuke of the Lord in Sinai, And in Horeb the judgment of vengeance:
— Sirach 48:8 —
9Who wast taken up in a whirlwind of fire, And in a chariot of fiery horses:
10Who wast ordained for reproofs in their times, To pacify the wrath of the Lord’s judgment, before it broke forth into fury, And to turn the heart of the father unto the son, And to restore the tribes of Jacob.
