Sirach 47:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³ He played with lions as though they were young goats,
    and with bears as though they were lambs of the flock.
⁴ In his youth did he not kill a giant,
    and take away the people’s disgrace,
when he whirled the stone in the sling
    and struck down the boasting Goliath?
⁵ For he called on the Lord, the Most High,
    and he gave strength to his right arm
to strike down a mighty warrior,
    and to exalt the power^[a] of his people.
