Proverbs 27:17-22

Mutual Refinement and Human Nature

Proverbs 27:17-22
17
Iron by iron is sharpened, And a man sharpens the face of his friend.
18
The keeper of a fig-tree eateth its fruit, And the preserver of his master is honoured.
19
As in water the face is to face, So the heart of man to man.
20
Sheol and destruction are not satisfied, And the eyes of man are not satisfied.
21
A refining pot is for silver, and a furnace for gold, And a man according to his praise.
22
If thou dost beat the foolish in a mortar, Among washed things--with a pestle, His folly turneth not aside from off him.
