9
1Oil 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 2your father's friend, and do not go to your brother's house in the day of your calamity. 3Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.
13
10Take 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
11A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
16
to restrain her is to restrain the wind or to graspc oil in one's right hand.
17
Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.d
19
As in water face reflects face, so the heart of man reflects the man.
21
17The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and a man is tested by his praise.
22
18Crush a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain, yet his folly will not depart from him.
24
for 21riches do not last forever; and does a crown endure to all generations?
25
22When the grass is gone and the new growth appears and the vegetation of the mountains is gathered,
26
23the lambs will provide your clothing, and the goats the price of a field.
27
24There will be enough goats' milk for your food, for the food of your household and maintenance for your girls.
