Proverbs 27:16-21

¹⁶Whoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand which bewrayeth itself .

¹⁷Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

¹⁸He that keepeth the fig-tree shall eat the fruit of it: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honored.

¹⁹As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man.

²⁰Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.

²¹As the fining-pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.
