Before · Proverbs 27:18–19

18Whoever tends the fig tree shall eat its fruit. He who looks after his master shall be honored. 19Like water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man.

20Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; and a man’s eyes are never satisfied.

After · Proverbs 27:21–22

21The crucible is for silver, and the furnace for gold; but man is refined by his praise. 22Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with grain, yet his foolishness will not be removed from him.
