Sheol and destruction are insatiable; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
The fining-pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold; so let a man be to the mouth that praiseth him.
If thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his folly depart from him.
Be well acquainted with the appearance of thy flocks; look well to thy herds:
for wealth is not for ever; and doth the crown [endure] from generation to generation?
The hay is removed, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered in.
The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of a field;
and there is goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and sustenance for thy maidens.
