Malachi 3:2-3

2But awho can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For bhe is like a refiner’s fire and like fullerssoap. 3He will sit cas a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring dofferings in righteousness to the Lord.
Or and they will belong to the Lord, bringers of an offering in righteousness

James 1:3

3for you know that fthe testing of your faith gproduces steadfastness.

1 Peter 1:7

7so that hthe tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes ithough it is tested by jfire—may be found to result in kpraise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
