Sirach 48:19-21

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁹ Then their hearts were shaken and their hands trembled,
    and they were in anguish, like women in labor.
²⁰ But they called upon the Lord who is merciful,
    spreading out their hands toward him.
The Holy One quickly heard them from heaven,
    and delivered them through Isaiah.
²¹ The Lord^[a] struck down the camp of the Assyrians,
    and his angel wiped them out.
