Ecclesiasticus 49:1-3 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. The memory of Josias is like the composition of a sweet smell made by the art of a perfumer:

2. His remembrance shall be sweet as honey in every mouth, and as music at a banquet of wine.

3. He was directed by God unto the repentance of the nation, and he took away the abominations of wickedness.
