Sirach 6:5-7
Common English Bible
Friendship
5 Pleasant speech gains more friends for itself,
and a sweet-speaking tongue
will multiply pleasant exchanges.
Let those who are at peace with you
be many,
but let only one in a thousand
be your advisor.
7 If you make friends, test them thoroughly
and don’t trust them quickly.
