1 Sir 45, 1 Moses was beloved by God and men. The remembrance of him is a blessing. 2 Sir 45, 2 He made him like the holy ones in glory, and he magnified him by the fear of his enemies, and he appeased great portents by his words. 3 Sir 45, 3 He glorified him in the sight of kings, and he gave commandments to him in the sight of his people, and he revealed his glory to him. 4 Sir 45, 4 He made him holy by his faith and meekness, and he chose him from among all flesh. 5 Sir 45, 5 For he heard him and his voice, and he led him into a cloud. 6 Sir 45, 6 And he gave him precepts in his presence, with a law of life and discipline, so as to teach Jacob his covenant and Israel his judgments. 7 Sir 45, 7 He exalted his brother Aaron and those who were similar to him from the tribe of Levi. 8 Sir 45, 8 He established an eternal covenant with him, and he gave him the priesthood of the people, and he caused him to be blessed in glory. 9 Sir 45, 9 And he encircled him with a glorious belt, and he clothed him with a robe of glory, and he crowned him with virtuous attire. 10 Sir 45, 10 He placed upon him a garment to the feet, and pants, and an ephod, and he wrapped him all around with many little bells of gold, 11 Sir 45, 11 so that there would be a sound at his arrival, and so as to make a noise that would be heard in the temple, as a memorial for the sons of his people. 12 Sir 45, 12 He provided him with a holy robe of gold and hyacinth and purple, a woven work for a wise man of judgment and truth, 13 Sir 45, 13 a work of twisted scarlet, the work of an artist, with precious stones, cut and set in gold, and engraved by the work of a jeweler, as a memorial according to the number of the tribes of Israel. 14 Sir 45, 14 He provided him with a crown of gold upon his headdress, on which was written a symbol of holiness, a mark of honor. This was a work of virtue and a delight to the eyes in its beauty. 15 Sir 45, 15 Prior to him, there was no one of such beauty, even from the beginning. 16 Sir 45, 16 No foreigner was ever clothed with these things, but only his sons and his descendents alone, for all time. 17 Sir 45, 17 His sacrifices were consumed by fire daily. 18 Sir 45, 18 Moses filled his hands and anointed him with holy oil. 19 Sir 45, 19 An eternal covenant was made, with him and with his offspring, like the days of heaven, to execute the office of the priesthood, and to give praise and to glorify his people, in his name. 20 Sir 45, 20 He chose him from among all living men to offer to God sacrifice, incense, and a pleasing fragrance, as a memorial of appeasement on behalf of his people. 21 Sir 45, 21 And he gave him authority by his precepts, in the covenants of his judgments, to teach Jacob his testimonies, and to give light by his law to Israel. 22 Sir 45, 22 Then strangers stood up against him, and, because of envy, the men who were with Dathan and Abiram surrounded him in the desert, along with the congregation of Korah, in their anger. 23 Sir 45, 23 The Lord God saw this, and it did not please him, and so they were consumed by the force of his anger. 24 Sir 45, 24 He wrought great portents among them, and he consumed them with a flame of fire. 25 Sir 45, 25 And he added glory to Aaron, and he gave him an inheritance, and he allotted to him the first-fruits of the earth. 26 Sir 45, 26 He prepared for them the finest bread unto fullness. And they shall also eat from the sacrifices of the Lord, which he gave to him and to his offspring. 27 Sir 45, 27 And yet he will not have an inheritance among the people of the land, and he has no portion among the people. For the Lord himself is his portion and his inheritance. 28 Sir 45, 28 Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, is third in glory, by imitating him in the fear of the Lord. 29 Sir 45, 29 And he stood up against the shamefulness of the people. By the goodness and responsiveness of his soul, he appeased God on behalf of Israel. 30 Sir 45, 30 For this reason, he made him a covenant of peace, a leader of the sanctuary and of his people, so that the dignity of the priesthood would remain with him and with his offspring unto eternity. 31 Sir 45, 31 And he made a 395 covenant with king David, the son of Jesse from the tribe of Judah, an inheritance for him and for his offspring, so that he might provide wisdom for our hearts, so as to judge his people in justice, lest their good things be abolished. And he caused their glory within their nation to be everlasting.

Sir 45,2 - Praotcov – Abraháma, Izáka, Jakuba.
Sir 45,12 - Posvätné osudie, hebrejský "urimtumim", znamená: "dokonalé osvietenie". V ťažkých chvíľach národa veľkňaz vchádzal do Božieho stánku, aby sa pomocou posvätného osudia opýtal Boha, čo treba podniknúť. V čom pozostávalo posvätné osudie, nevieme. Niektorí myslia na paličky, pomocou ktorých vrhal veľkňaz lós. Mal ich uschované v zdobenom kňazskom náprsníku (Ex 28,30; Lv 8,8).
Sir 45,22 - Porov. Nm 16,1–35.
Sir 45,28 - Finés je uvedený ako tretí držiteľ veľkňazskej dôstojnosti, kým jeho otec, Eleazar, nie je zvlášť uvedený ako veľkňaz. Finés vynikol horlivosťou za čistotu bohoslužby a za úctu pravého Boha vtedy, keď sa národ smilstvom s Moabkami prehrešil proti Bohu (Nm 25,1–15).
