Proverbs 27:21

LXX

NIV

21 Fire is the trial for silver and gold; and a man is tried by the mouth of them that praise him. The heart of the transgressor seeks after mischiefs; but an upright heart seeks knowledge.
21 The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but people are tested by their praise.
