4 Wealth makes many “friends”; poverty drives them all away.
4 (A)Wealth adds many friends,But a poor man is separated from his friend.
6 Many seek favors from a ruler; everyone is the friend of a person who gives gifts!
6 (A)Many will seek the favor of a noble man,And everyone is a friend to a man who (B)gives gifts.
17 If you help the poor, you are lending to the Lord— and he will repay you!
17 He who (A)is gracious to a poor man lends to Yahweh,And He will repay him for his (B)bountiful deed.
