A man having many friends, shall come to ruin, but there is a loving one, who sticketh closer than a brother.

At all times, doth a friend love, and, a brother for distress, must be born.

Better is a rebuke that is open, than love carefully concealed. Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but lavished are the kisses of an enemy.

The righteous man guideth his neighbour, but, the way of the lawless, leadeth them astray.

He that walketh with the wise, becometh wise, but, the friend of dullards, becometh foolish.

Do not have friendship with one given to anger, and, with a wrathful man, shall thou not enter in: Lest thou learn his ways, and take a snare to thy soul.

Be not deceiving yourselves, - evil communications corrupt gentle manners: -

Be not getting diversely yoked with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness?

A scoffer seeketh wisdom, and there is none, but, knowledge, to the discerning, is easy. Get thee from the presence of a man that is a dullard, when thou perceivest not the lips of knowledge.

Let, iron, by iron, become sharp, and let, a man, sharpen the face of his friend.
