Psalms 12:6

The Lord's (Yahweh's) promises are pure (flawless) promises,
like silver refined in a furnace on the ground,
seven times [Ps. 18:31; 119:140].
[The first line has no verb and is literally: "Promise JHVH promise pure" (Hebr. imrot JHVH imrot tesorot). The word for promise (Hebr. imrah) is repeated twice and surrounds the Lord (Yahweh). God's name is paralleled with the word pure (Hebr. tahor), which is used to describe pure gold (Ex. 25:31). The wording communicates that God's promise is pure because God himself is pure. The number seven stands for perfection. Silver was purified several times until most of the dross was gone; God's word is perfectly (sevenfold) pure. The Greek translation Septuagint writes "burned and tested on earth." In the larger chiastic pattern, God's pure promise stands in contrast to flattering words in verses 4-5.]
