Proverbs 19:6-8
Evangelical Heritage Version
6 Many seek the goodwill of a ruler,
and everyone is a friend to a person who gives gifts.
7 A poor person’s brothers all hate him.
Even his friends keep their distance from him!
Though he pursues them with words, they are not there.
8 A person who acquires intelligence[a] loves his life.[b]
A person who guards understanding finds a good thing.
