Sirach 33:16-17
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
16 I was the last on watch;
I was like one who gleans after the grape-gatherers;
by the blessing of the Lord I excelled,
and like a grape-gatherer I filled my wine press.
17 Consider that I have not labored for myself alone,
but for all who seek instruction.
