Proverbs 17:16-18

The Voice

¹⁶ Even if fools had the means to obtain wisdom,
    they would not be able to benefit from it.
¹⁷ A true friend loves regardless of the situation,
    and a real brother exists to share the tough times.
¹⁸ Only a fool shakes hands on a deal
    and guarantees repayment of someone else’s loan.
