Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens his friend’s countenance.
18
Whoever tends the fig tree shall eat its fruit. He who looks after his master shall be honored.
19
Like water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man.
20
Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; and a man’s eyes are never satisfied.
21
The crucible is for silver, and the furnace for gold; but man is refined by his praise.
22
Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with grain, yet his foolishness will not be removed from him.
