Default How to read offset cells from dynamic sort array formula?

Hi,

I have two columns that I am working with. Column A has text labels,
and Column B has corresponding values. I would like to perform a
dynamic sort to show the value and corresponding text labels in order
from highest to lowest.

I have created an array formula to sort the values, and that works
fine:
{=LARGE(Data, ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(Data))))}
(Note: "Data" is a named range)

The problems is that I can't seem to figure out how to pull the
corresponding text labels out of the adjacent column. It seems like I
should be able to use OFFSET to do it, but I can't seem to wrangle an
address from the sorting function to feed into OFFSET.

I'm grateful to anyone who can help.

Best wishes...

....Jay
