Verse 22 is found in chapter 27 of Proverbs. Faithful work is illustrated through one who tends a fig tree and eventually receives its fruit. The human heart also reflects what it truly contains, just as water reflects a face. Silver and gold can be tested repeatedly, but deeply rooted folly is difficult to separate from the fool. The section emphasizes the need to examine character rather than circumstances alone.
