Proverbs 27:17-27

Iron
<01270>
sharpeneth
<02300> (8799)
iron
<01270>_;
so a man
<0376>
sharpeneth
<02300> (8686)
the countenance
<06440>
of his friend
<07453>_.
Whoso keepeth
<05341> (8802)
the fig tree
<08384>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
the fruit
<06529>
thereof: so he that waiteth
<08104> (8802)
on his master
<0113>
shall be honoured
<03513> (8792)_.
As in water
<04325>
face
<06440>
[answereth] to face
<06440>_,
so the heart
<03820>
of man
<0120>
to man
<0120>_.
Hell
<07585>
and destruction
<011> (8675) <010>
are never
<03808>
full
<07646> (8799)_;
so the eyes
<05869>
of man
<0120>
are never satisfied
<07646> (8799)_.
{never: Heb. not}
[As] the fining pot
<04715>
for silver
<03701>_,
and the furnace
<03564>
for gold
<02091>_;
so [is] a man
<0376>
to
<06310>
his praise
<04110>_.
Though thou shouldest bray
<03806> (8799)
a fool
<0191>
in a mortar
<04388>
among
<08432>
wheat
<07383>
with a pestle
<05940>_,
[yet] will not his foolishness
<0200>
depart
<05493> (8799)
from him.
Be thou diligent
<03045> (8799)
to know
<03045> (8800)
the state
<06440>
of thy flocks
<06629>_,
[and] look
<07896> (8798)
well
<03820>
to thy herds
<05739>_.
{look...: Heb. set thy heart}
For riches
<02633>
[are] not for ever
<05769>_:
and doth the crown
<05145>
[endure] to every
<01755>
generation
<01755>_?
{riches: Heb. strength} {to...: Heb. to generation and generation?}
The hay
<02682>
appeareth
<01540> (8804)_,
and the tender grass
<01877>
sheweth
<07200> (8738)
itself, and herbs
<06212>
of the mountains
<02022>
are gathered
<0622> (8738)_.
The lambs
<03532>
[are] for thy clothing
<03830>_,
and the goats
<06260>
[are] the price
<04242>
of the field
<07704>_.
And [thou shalt have] goats
<05795>_'
milk
<02461>
enough
<01767>
for thy food
<03899>_,
for the food
<03899>
of thy household
<01004>_,
and [for] the maintenance
<02416>
for thy maidens
<05291>_.
{maintenance: Heb. life}
