Proverbs 27:17-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
17 Iron sharpens iron,
and one person sharpens the wits[a] of another.
18 Anyone who tends a fig tree will eat its fruit,
and anyone who takes care of a master will be honored.(A)
19 Just as water reflects the face,
so one human heart reflects another.
