Proverbs 17:17-21

¹⁷A friend loveth at all times, and as a brother is he born for the time of distress.

¹⁸A man void of sense pledgeth his hand, and becometh surety for his friend.

¹⁹He loveth transgression that loveth quarrel; and he that maketh high his door seeketh destruction.

²⁰He that hath a froward heart will not find happiness; and he that hath a perverse tongue will fall into evil.

²¹He that begetteth a fool doth it to his sorrow; and the father of a worthless fool cannot have any joy.
