15 For a persistent leak on a rainy daythe match is a quarrelsome wife;
16 Whoever would hide her hides a stormwindand cannot tell north from south.
17 Iron is sharpened by iron;one person sharpens another.
18 Those who tend a fig tree eat its fruit;so those attentive to their master will be honored.
19 As face mirrors face in water,so the heart reflects the person.
20 Sheol and Abaddon can never be satisfied;so the eyes of mortals can never be satisfied.
21 The crucible for silver, the furnace for gold,so you must assay the praise you receive.
