Mishle 17:15-17

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁵ He that justifieth the rashah, and he that condemneth the tzaddik, even they both are to’evah to Hashem.

¹⁶ Why is there the purchase price in the yad of a kesil (fool) to acquire chochmah, seeing he hath no lev for it?

¹⁷ The re’a (friend) loveth at all times, and a brother is born for tzarah (adversity).
