Refining

As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:

Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people?

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.
