Proverbs 17:17

A friend loves at all times,

And a brother is born for adversity.

Proverbs 18:24

A man of too many friends comes to ruin,

But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Faithful are the wounds of a friend,

But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.

Oil and incense make the heart glad,

So counsel from the soul is sweet to his friend.

Do not forsake your friend or your father’s friend,

And do not come to your brother’s house in the day of your disaster;

Better is one who dwells near than a brother far away.
