Proverbs 19:7-9

Complete Jewish Bible

⁷ A poor man’s relatives all hate him;
    even more his friends stay away from him.
He may pursue them with entreaties,
    but they aren’t there to be found.

⁸ To acquire good sense is to love oneself;
    to treasure discernment is to prosper.
⁹ A false witness will not go unpunished;
    whoever breathes out lies will perish.
