"Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, will not his foolishness depart from him."
In context
20Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
21the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so a man to his praise.
22Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, will not his foolishness depart from him.
23Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, look well to thy herds.
24For riches not for ever: and doth the crown to every generation?
