22:1 Some time after these things God tested
16:7 The Lord’s angel
23:10 But he knows the pathway that I take;
if he tested me, I would come forth like gold.
7:9 May the evil deeds of the wicked
But make the innocent
O righteous God,
you who examine
66:10 For
you purified us like refined silver.
6:27 The Lord said to me,
“I have made you like a metal assayer
to test my people like ore.
You are to observe them
and evaluate how they behave.”
6:28 I reported,
“All of them are the most stubborn of rebels!
They are as hard as bronze or iron.
They go about telling lies.
They all deal corruptly.
6:29 The fiery bellows of judgment burn fiercely.
But there is too much dross to be removed.
The process of refining them has proved useless.
The wicked have not been purged.
6:30 They are regarded as ‘rejected silver’
because the Lord rejects them.”
3:2 Who can endure the day of his coming? Who can keep standing when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire,
