Proverbs 17:17


Proverbs 17:16 Proverbs 17:17 (KJV) Proverbs 17:18
Wherefore [is there] a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing [he hath] no heart [to it]?
A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
A man void of understanding striketh hands, [and] becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
