Proverbs 17:16-18
New Life Version
16 It does a fool no good to try to buy wisdom, when he has no understanding.
17 A friend loves at all times. A brother is born to share troubles.
18 A man without good thinking makes promises, and becomes a trust for what another man owes his neighbor.

New International Version
16 Why should fools have money in hand to buy wisdom,
when they are not able to understand it?(A)
17 A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is born for a time of adversity.(B)

and puts up security for a neighbor.(C)
