Proverbs 27:20-22
New Living Translation
20 Just as Death and Destruction[a] are never satisfied,
so human desire is never satisfied.
21 Fire tests the purity of silver and gold,
but a person is tested by being praised.[b]
22 You cannot separate fools from their foolishness,
even though you grind them like grain with mortar and pestle.
