3
And it eat up thy leaves, and destroy thy fruit: and thou be left as a dry tree in the wilderness.
4
For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked.
5
A sweet word multiplieth friends, and appeaseth enemies, and a gracious tongue in a good man aboundeth.
6
Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be thy counsellor.
7
If thou wouldst get a friend, try him before thou takest him, and do not credit him easily.
8
For there is a friend for his own occasion, and he will not abide in the day of thy trouble.
9
And there is a friend that turneth to enmity; and there is a friend that will disclose hatred and strife and reproaches.
10
And there is a friend a companion at the table, and he will not abide in the day of distress.
11
A friend ii he continue steadfast, shall be to thee as thyself, and shall act with confidence among them of thy household.
12
If he humble himself before thee, and hide himself from thy face, thou shalt have unanimous friendship for good.
13
Separate thyself from thy enemies, and take heed of thy friends.
