Proverbs 27:18-20
Lexham English Bible

18 He who tends a fig tree will eat its fruit,
    and he who guards his master[a] will be honored.
19 As the waters reflect face to face,[b]
    so the heart of a person reflects the person.
20 Sheol[c] and Abaddon[d] will not be satisfied,
    and the eyes of a person will not be satisfied either.
