Ben Sira 9:10

Listen to Ben Sira 9:10
10 Forsake not an old friend, for the new is not comparable to him. A new friend is as new wine: when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

Ben Sira 9:10 In-Context

8 Turn away thine eye from a beautiful woman, and look not upon another's beauty; for many have been deceived by the beauty of a woman, for herewith love is kindled as a fire.
9 Sit not at all with another man's wife, nor sit down with her in thine arms; and spend not thy money with her at wine, lest thine heart incline unto her, and so through thy desire thou fall into destruction.
10 Forsake not an old friend, for the new is not comparable to him. A new friend is as new wine: when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.
11 Envy not the glory of a sinner, for thou knowest not what shall be his end.
12 Delight not in the thing that the ungodly have pleasure in, but remember they shall not go unpunished unto their grave.
