Proverbs 27:20

All About Life

¹⁹ As the waters [reflect] {face to face}, so the heart of a person [reflects] the person. ²⁰ Sheol and Abaddon will not be satisfied, and the eyes of a person will not be satisfied [either]. ²¹ A crucible [is] for the silver, and a furnace for the gold, but a man [is tested by] the mouth of him who praises him.

Sometimes a man is all alone with no companion; he also has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his toil, and his eye is not satisfied with wealth. [He laments,] "For whom am I toiling and depriving {myself} of pleasure?" This also [is] vanity--it is an unhappy business!
