Proverbs 27:19-26

View Full Chapter

19As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart. Or so others reflect your heart back to you

20Death and Destruction Hebrew Abaddon are never satisfied, and neither are human eyes.

21The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but people are tested by their praise.

22Though you grind a fool in a mortar, grinding them like grain with a pestle, you will not remove their folly from them.

23Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds;

24for riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations.

25When the hay is removed and new growth appears and the grass from the hills is gathered in,

26the lambs will provide you with clothing, and the goats with the price of a field.
