Proverbs 19:7-9

World English Bible

⁷ All the relatives of the poor shun him;
    how much more do his friends avoid him!
    He pursues them with pleas, but they are gone.
⁸ He who gets wisdom loves his own soul.
    He who keeps understanding shall find good.
⁹ A false witness shall not be unpunished.
    He who utters lies shall perish.
