Proverbs 27:22-24
International Standard Version

22 Though you crush a fool in a mortar and pestle
    as someone might crush grain,
        his stupidity still won’t leave him.

23 Keep well informed of the condition of your flocks
    and pay attention to your herds,
24 because riches don’t endure forever,
    and crowns don’t last from one generation to the next.

Proverbs 27:22-24
New International Version

22 Though you grind a fool in a mortar,
    grinding them like grain with a pestle,
    you will not remove their folly from them.

23 Be sure you know the condition of your flocks,(A)
    give careful attention to your herds;
24 for riches do not endure forever,(B)
    and a crown is not secure for all generations.
