Proverbs 17:17

Compare all

15 ^aHe who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just,
Both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.

16 Why is there in the hand of a fool the purchase price of wisdom,
Since he has no heart for it?

17 ^aA friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.

18 ^aA man devoid of¹ understanding shakes hands in a pledge,
And becomes¹ surety for his friend.

19 He who loves transgression loves strife,
And ^ahe who exalts his gate seeks destruction.
