27 “I have set you as an assayer and a fortress among My people,That you may know and test their way.
28 They are all stubborn rebels, walking as slanderers.They are bronze and iron,They are all corrupters;
29 The bellows blow fiercely,The lead is consumed by the fire;The smelter refines in vain,For the wicked are not drawn off.
30 People will call them rejected silver,Because the Lord has rejected them.”
