הִנֵּ֥ה צְרַפְתִּ֖יךָ וְלֹ֣א בְכָ֑סֶף בְּחַרְתִּ֖יךָ בְּכ֥וּר עֹֽנִי׃

זע, איך האָב דיך געלײַטערט, אָבער ניט װי זילבער, איך האָב דיך געפּרוּװט אין שמעלצאױװן פֿון פּײַן.

Rashi

but not as silver [lit. but not with silver.] Not with the fire of Gehinnom, as silver is refined through fire.

Rashi

I have chosen for you Heb. בְּחַרְתִּיךָ. I have chosen for you the crucible of poverty as opposed to the crucible of fire. A crucible (כּוּר) is a vessel in which they melt silver and gold.
