1 Sir 43, 1 The pride of the height, the clear firmament, the beauty of heaven, with his glorious shew; 2 Sir 43, 2 The sun when it appeareth, declaring at his rising a marvellous instrument, the work of the most High: 3 Sir 43, 3 At noon it parcheth the country, and who can abide the burning heat thereof? 4 Sir 43, 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 Sir 43, 5 Great is the Lord that made it; and at his commandment runneth hastily. 6 Sir 43, 6 He made the moon also to serve in her season for a declaration of times, and a sign of the world. 7 Sir 43, 7 From the moon is the sign of feasts, a light that decreaseth in her perfection. 8 Sir 43, 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 Sir 43, 9 The beauty of heaven, the glory of the stars, an ornament giving light in the highest places of the Lord. 10 Sir 43, 10 At the commandment of the Holy One they will stand in their order, and never faint in their watches. 11 Sir 43, 11 Look upon the rainbow, and praise him that made it; very beautiful it is in the brightness thereof. 12 Sir 43, 12 It compasseth the heaven about with a glorious circle, and the hands of the most High have bended it. 13 Sir 43, 13 By his commandment he maketh the snow to fall aplace, and sendeth swiftly the lightnings of his judgment. 14 Sir 43, 14 Through this the treasures are opened: and clouds fly forth as fowls. 15 Sir 43, 15 By his great power he maketh the clouds firm, and the hailstones are broken small. 16 Sir 43, 16 At his sight the mountains are shaken, and at his will the south wind bloweth. 17 Sir 43, 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 Sir 43, 18 The eye marvelleth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the raining of it. 19 Sir 43, 19 The hoarfrost also as salt he poureth on the earth, and being congealed, it lieth on the top of sharp stakes. 20 Sir 43, 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 Sir 43, 21 It devoureth the mountains, and burneth the wilderness, and consumeth the grass as fire. 22 Sir 43, 22 A present remedy of all is a mist coming speedily, a dew coming after heat refresheth. 23 Sir 43, 23 By his counsel he appeaseth the deep, and planteth islands therein. 24 Sir 43, 24 They that sail on the sea tell of the danger thereof; and when we hear it with our ears, we marvel thereat. 25 Sir 43, 25 For therein be strange and wondrous works, variety of all kinds of beasts and whales created. 26 Sir 43, 26 By him the end of them hath prosperous success, and by his word all things consist. 27 Sir 43, 27 We may speak much, and yet come short: wherefore in sum, he is all. 28 Sir 43, 28 How shall we be able to magnify him? for he is great above all his works. 29 Sir 43, 29 The Lord is terrible and very great, and marvellous is his power. 30 Sir 43, 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 Sir 43, 31 Who hath seen him, that he might tell us? and who can magnify him as he is? 32 Sir 43, 32 There are yet hid greater things than these be, for we have seen but a few of his works. 33 Sir 43, 33 For the Lord hath made all things; and to the godly hath he given wisdom.

Sir 43,7 - Prvý deň mesiaca mal povahu polovičného sviatku. Najmä prvý deň siedmeho mesiaca (tišri) bol začiatkom občianskeho roka, a tak tento deň bol plným sviatkom. Tak sa stal mesiac ukazovateľom slávností a časov (Nm 28,11; 1 Sam 20,5.24).
Sir 43,15 - Antická predstava o vetroch bola tá, že boh mal vetry uzavreté vo vreci a podľa potreby ich vypúšťal na svet. Keď vetry vykonali svoju činnosť, znovu sa vrátili na miesto svojho predošlého pobytu. Aj tu prevláda asi taká predstava o bleskoch a mrakoch, keď Sir hovorí o zásobárňach mrakov a bleskov.
