20. The grave and the underworld are never satisfied;and people’s eyes are never satisfied.
21. A crucible is for silver and a furnace for gold,so are people in the presence of someone who praises them.
22. Even if you grind fools in a mortar,even grinding them along with the grain,their folly won’t be driven from them.
23. Know your flock well;pay attention to your herds,
24. for no treasure lasts forever,nor a crown generation after generation.
