Proverbs 27:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ When you look into water, you see a likeness of your face.
    When you look into your heart, you see what you are really like.

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.
