Proverbs 17:9

New Living Translation

⁹Love prospers when a fault is forgiven,
but dwelling on it separates close friends.

Proverbs 17:9

Lexham English Bible

⁹He who forgives an affront fosters love,
but he who waits on a matter will alienate a friend.

¹⁷A friend is always loyal,
and a brother is born to help in time of need.

¹⁷The friend loves at all times^[a],
but a brother is born for adversity.
