7The full soul loatheth a honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
8As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
9Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart; so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
10Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity; better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
11My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that taunteth me.
12A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the thoughtless pass on, and are punished.
13Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; and hold him in pledge that is surety for an alien woman.
14He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
