You'd say: Reading from the book of Sirach,
Chapter 6, verses 5 to 10 & 4 to 17.

Chapter and verse - respectively
Example: Sirach 6 (chapter) : 5-10 (verses 5 through 10)

6 is the chapter of the book and all the numbers after the : are verses. Just remember that the big numbers are chapters, and the little numbers are verses. Although, when you read the Bible outloud, you for sure don't say the verses, and some people don't say the chapters as well.

Sirach is part of the Catholic Bible and rejected by the Protestants. It's one of the apocryphas, and I don't give much credence to it.
