Sirach 45:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ The Lord established
an eternal covenant with him
    and gave him the priesthood
    of the people.
    He blessed Aaron with dignity,
    and wrapped him in a glorious cloak.
⁸ The Lord clothed him
with unrivaled praise,^[a]
    and honored him
    with objects of power—
    leggings, a full-length robe,
    and the priestly vest.
⁹ He encircled Aaron with pomegranates,
    with a great number of gold bells
    all around,
    in order to create a sound
    when he stepped,
    to make a sound that would be heard
    in the temple,
    as a reminder for the children
    of the Lord’s people.
