5 1Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
6 Faithful are 2the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
7 One who is full loathes 3honey, but to one who is hungry everything bitter is sweet.
8 Like 4a bird that strays from its nest is a man who strays from his home.
9 5Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel. a
10 Do not forsake your friend and 6your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity. 7Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.
11 8Be wise, 9my son, and 10make my heart glad, that I may 11answer him who reproaches me.
12 12The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but 13the simple go on and suffer for it.
13 14Take a man’s garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for an adulteress. b
14 Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing.
15 15A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
