Ben Sira 48:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 In his lifetime he turned back the sun
and prolonged the life of the king.(A)
24 By his powerful spirit he looked into the future(B)
and consoled the mourners of Zion;
25 He foretold what would happen till the end of time,
hidden things yet to be fulfilled.
