Sirach 50:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 And the people of the Lord Most High offered
their prayer before the Merciful One,
until the order of worship of the Lord was ended
and they completed his ritual.
20 Then Simon[a] came down and raised his hands
over the whole congregation of Israelites,
to pronounce the blessing of the Lord with his lips
and to glory in his name,
21 and they bowed down in worship a second time
to receive the blessing from the Most High.(A)
