33:16 The teacher shares what he has learnt

16 I was the last on watch,

like one who gleans after the grape gatherers.

17 By the master’s blessing I arrived before them,

and filled my wine-pressing pit like one who gathers grapes.

18 Consider that I laboured not for myself alone,

but for all those who seek instruction.

19 Hear me, you great men of the people,

and listen with your ears, you rulers of the congregation.
