Proverbs 19:6-8
American Standard Version
6 Many will entreat the favor of [a]the liberal man;
And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
7 All the brethren of the poor do hate him:
How much more do his friends go far from him!
[b]He pursueth them with words, but they are gone.
8 He that getteth [c]wisdom loveth his own soul:
He that keepeth understanding shall find good.
