Sirach 48:9-11
Good News Translation
9 You were taken up to heaven in a fiery whirlwind, a chariot drawn by fiery horses. 10 The scripture says that you are ready to appear at the designated time,[a] to cool God's anger before it breaks out in fury; that you
will bring parents and children together again, and restore the tribes of Israel. 11 Fortunate are those who live to see you come, as well as those who have already died in love, for we too shall live.[b]
