9 Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends.
9 Whoever (A)covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter (B)separates close friends.
17 A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.
17 (A)A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
