Proverbs 19:7-9
American Standard Version
7 All the brethren of the poor do hate him:
How much more do his friends go far from him!
[a]He pursueth them with words, but they are gone.
8 He that getteth [b]wisdom loveth his own soul:
He that keepeth understanding shall find good.
9 A false witness shall not be unpunished;
And he that [c]uttereth lies shall perish.
