Sirach 38:30-32
Common English Bible
30 They will mold the clay with their hands
and work the wheel with their feet.
They will devote themselves
to finishing the glazing,
and they lose sleep
in order to clean the kiln.
31 All of these have relied on their hands,
and each one is skilled in their work.
32 Without them a city can’t be inhabited,
and they neither go abroad to live
as immigrants nor travel about.
However, they aren’t sought out
when the people hold a council,
