מַצְרֵף לַכֶּסֶף וְכוּר לַזָּהָב וּבֹחֵן לִבּוֹת יְהוָֽה
The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold; But the LORD trieth the hearts. .

A evil-doer giveth heed to wicked lips; And a liar giveth ear to a mischievous tongue.

Whoso mocketh the poor blasphemeth his Maker; And he that is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.
