17The friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
18A senseless man striketh hands, becoming surety for his neighbour.
19He loveth transgression that loveth a quarrel; he that maketh high his gate seeketh destruction.
20He that hath a perverse heart findeth no good; and he that shifteth about with his tongue falleth into evil.
21He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow, and the father of a vile man hath no joy.
