Proverbs 17:17

New International Version

¹⁷A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is born for a time of adversity.^(A)

Proverbs 17:17

International Standard Version

¹⁷A friend loves at all times,
and a brother is there^[a] for times of trouble.

¹⁷A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

¹⁹A brother wronged^(A) is more unyielding than a fortified city;
disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel.

¹⁹An offended brother is more unyielding than a fortified city,
and his disputes are like the bars of a fortress.

¹⁹A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
