Proverbs 27:20-24 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

20. Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied, and people’s eyes are never satisfied.

21. A crucible for silver, and a smelter for gold,and a man for the words of his praise.

22. Though you grind a foolin a mortar with a pestle along with grain,you will not separate his foolishness from him.

23. Know well the condition of your flock, and pay attention to your herds,

24. for wealth is not forever; not even a crown lasts for all time.
