Proverbs 27:20-22
New International Reader's Version
20 Death and the Grave are never satisfied.
People’s eyes are never satisfied either.
21 Fire tests silver, and heat tests gold.
But people are tested by the praise they receive.
22 Suppose you could grind a foolish person in a mill.
Suppose you could grind them as you would grind grain with a tool.
Even then you could not remove their foolishness from them.
