17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
17 As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.
17 Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.
17 You use steel to sharpen steel, and one friend sharpens another.
17 As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
17 As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.
