Sirach 43
- 1 The pride of the height, the clear firmament, the beauty of heaven, with his glorious shew;
- 2 The sun when it appeareth, declaring at his rising a marvellous instrument, the work of the most High:
- 3 At noon it parcheth the country, and who can abide the burning heat thereof?
- 4 A man blowing a furnace is in works of heat, but the sun burneth the mountains three times more; breathing out fiery vapours, and sending forth bright beams, it dimmeth the eyes.
- 5 Great is the Lord that made it; and at his commandment runneth hastily.
- 6 He made the moon also to serve in her season for a declaration of times, and a sign of the world.
- 7 From the moon is the sign of feasts, a light that decreaseth in her perfection.
- 8 The month is called after her name, increasing wonderfully in her changing, being an instrument of the armies above, shining in the firmament of heaven;
- 9 The beauty of heaven, the glory of the stars, an ornament giving light in the highest places of the Lord.
- 10 At the commandment of the Holy One they will stand in their order, and never faint in their watches.
- 11 Look upon the rainbow, and praise him that made it; very beautiful it is in the brightness thereof.
- 12 It compasseth the heaven about with a glorious circle, and the hands of the most High have bended it.
- 13 By his commandment he maketh the snow to fall aplace, and sendeth swiftly the lightnings of his judgment.
- 14 Through this the treasures are opened: and clouds fly forth as fowls.
- 15 By his great power he maketh the clouds firm, and the hailstones are broken small.
- 16 At his sight the mountains are shaken, and at his will the south wind bloweth.
- 17 The noise of the thunder maketh the earth to tremble: so doth the northern storm and the whirlwind: as birds flying he scattereth the snow, and the falling down thereof is as the lighting of grasshoppers:
- 18 The eye marvelleth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the raining of it.
- 19 The hoarfrost also as salt he poureth on the earth, and being congealed, it lieth on the top of sharp stakes.
- 20 When the cold north wind bloweth, and the water is congealed into ice, it abideth upon every gathering together of water, and clotheth the water as with a breastplate.
- 21 It devoureth the mountains, and burneth the wilderness, and consumeth the grass as fire.
- 22 A present remedy of all is a mist coming speedily, a dew coming after heat refresheth.
- 23 By his counsel he appeaseth the deep, and planteth islands therein.
- 24 They that sail on the sea tell of the danger thereof; and when we hear it with our ears, we marvel thereat.
- 25 For therein be strange and wondrous works, variety of all kinds of beasts and whales created.
- 26 By him the end of them hath prosperous success, and by his word all things consist.
- 27 We may speak much, and yet come short: wherefore in sum, he is all.
- 28 How shall we be able to magnify him? for he is great above all his works.
- 29 The Lord is terrible and very great, and marvellous is his power.
- 30 When ye glorify the Lord, exalt him as much as ye can; for even yet will he far exceed: and when ye exalt him, put forth all your strength, and be not weary; for ye can never go far enough.
- 31 Who hath seen him, that he might tell us? and who can magnify him as he is?
- 32 There are yet hid greater things than these be, for we have seen but a few of his works.
- 33 For the Lord hath made all things; and to the godly hath he given wisdom.

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology and CatchWords, including Apocrypha (without glosses) (kjva - 3.1)
2023-07-19English (en)
This is the King James Version of the Holy Bible (also known as the Authorized Version) with embedded Strong's Numbers. The rights to the base text are held by the Crown of England.
The Strong's numbers in the OT were obtained from The Bible Foundation: http://www.bf.org. The NT Strong's data was obtained from The KJV2003 Project at CrossWire: http://www.crosswire.org. These mechanisms provide a useful means for looking up the exact original language word in a lexicon that is keyed to Strong's numbers.
Special thanks to the volunteers at Bible Foundation for keying the Hebrew/English data and of Project KJV2003 for working toward the completion of synchronizing the English phrases to the Stephanas Textus Receptus, and to Dr. Maurice Robinson for providing the base Greek text with Strong's and Morphology.
We are also appreciative of formatting markup that was provided by Michael Paul Johnson at http://www.ebible.org. Their time and generosity to contribute such for the free use of the Body of Christ is a great blessing and this derivitive work could not have been possible without these efforts of so many individuals.
Version 3.1 incorporates a more recent set of TR data from Dr. Maurice Robinson than was used in all the earlier versions. The TR data was obtained in 2016 from the Greek New Testament sources website
https://sites.google.com/a/wmail.fi/greeknt/home/greeknt
This was integrated into the OSIS source files of an intermediate version 2.9a hosted at
https://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/kjv2011/kjv2.9a/
It is in this spirit that we in turn offer the KJV2003 Project text freely for any purpose.
Any copyright that might be obtained for this effort is held by CrossWire Bible Society © 2003-2023 and CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use this text for any purpose.
