Sirach 38:32 CPDV

³⁰  The voice of the hammer is ever in his ears, and his eye is upon the pattern of the ironwork.

³¹  He gives his heart to the completion of his work, and his vigilance adorns it to perfection.

³²  The potter, sitting at his work and turning the wheel with his feet, is similar. He has settled into a continual concern for his work, and there is a rhythm in all that he does.

³³  He forms the clay with his arm, and he bends his strength over his feet.

³⁴  He will give his heart over to the completion of the glazing, and his vigilance to the cleansing of the furnace.
