Sirach 44Hymn in Honor of Our Ancestors

1Let us now sing the praises of famous men,

our ancestors in their generations.

2The Lord apportioned to them great glory,

his majesty from the beginning.

3

12Their descendants stand by the covenants;

their children also, for their sake.

13 their wisdom,

and the congregation proclaims their praise.

Enoch

16

because of him a remnant was left on the earth

when the flood came.

18 assured him with an oath

that the nations would be blessed through his offspring,

that he would make him as numerous as the dust of the earth

and exalt his offspring like the stars

and give them an inheritance from sea to sea

and from the Euphrates to the ends of the earth.

Isaac and Jacob

22 brought forth a man of compassion

who found favor in the sight of all
