Sirach 27:5-7
Common English Bible
5 A kiln tests a potter’s jars,
and decision making tests a person.
6 A tree’s fruit reveals
how well it has been cultivated.
In the same way, reasoning makes plain
a person’s thoughts.
7 Don’t praise people
until after they present an argument,
for this is how people are tested.
