Proverbs 17:16-18
Tree of Life Version
16 Of what use is money in the hand of a fool
since he has no intention of acquiring wisdom?
17 A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is born for adversity.
18 A man lacking judgment shakes hands on a deal
and puts up financial security for his neighbor.
Proverbs 17:16-18
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)
18 One who has no sense shakes hands in pledge
and puts up security for a neighbor.(C)
