Proverbs 17:3-5
The Message

3 As silver in a crucible and gold in a pan,
    so our lives are refined by God.

4 Evil people relish malicious conversation;
    the ears of liars itch for dirty gossip.

5 Whoever mocks poor people insults their Creator;
    gloating over misfortune is a punishable crime.
