Sirach 38:28
28So too is the smith sitting by the anvil
and considering the unwrought iron.
The smoke of the fire will waste his flesh.
He toils in the heat of the furnace.
The noise of the hammer deafens his ear.
His eyes are upon the pattern of the object.
He will set his heart upon perfecting his works.
He will be careful to adorn them perfectly.
