Sirach 48:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
11 Happy are those who saw you
and were adorned[a] with your love!
For we also shall surely live.[b]
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.[c]
Never in his lifetime did he tremble before any ruler,
nor could anyone intimidate him at all.
13 Nothing was too hard for him,
and when he was dead, his body prophesied.
