⁹ He that covereth a transgression seeketh love;
    but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.

⁶ Faithful are the wounds of a friend;
but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

⁹ Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart:
so doth the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.

¹⁰ Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not;
neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity:
for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
