and by the blessing of the Lord I arrived early enough to fill my winepress as completely as any of them.
by the blessing of the Lord I arrived first, and like a grape-picker I filled my wine press.
But I want you to know that I have not done all this work for myself alone, but for everyone who wants to learn.
Behold ye, for I travailed not to (or for) me alone, but to all that seek cunning, (or knowing, or knowledge), [or discipline].
Consider that I have not labored for myself alone, but for all who seek instruction.
by the blessing of the Lord I arrived first, and like a grape-picker I filled my winepress.
by the blessing of the Lord I arrived first, and like a grape-picker I filled my wine press.
By the blessing of the Lord, I was first on the scene, and like the grape pickers, I filled up a wine vat.
Since by the Lord’s blessing I have made progress till like a grape-picker I have filled my wine press,
Consider that I have not labored for myself alone, but for all who seek instruction.
by the blessing of the Lord I arrived first, and like a grape-picker I filled my wine press.
