27. I have set you as an assayerand fortress among My peoplethat you may knowand try their way.
28. They all are stubborn rebelswalking about practicing slander.They are bronze and iron;they all are corrupters.
29. The bellows blow fiercely,the lead is consumed by the fire;the founder melts in vain,for the wicked are not plucked away.
30. Men will call them rejected silver,because the Lord has rejected them.
