Proverbs 27:22-24
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
22 Crush a fool in a mortar with a pestle
along with crushed grain,
but the folly will not be driven out.
23 Know well the condition of your flocks,
and give attention to your herds;
24 for riches do not last forever,
nor a crown for all generations.
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.
