so is a man who wanders from his home.
9 Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart;
so does earnest counsel from a man’s friend.

Don’t go to your brother’s house in the day of your disaster.
A neighbor who is near is better than a distant brother.

And go not to thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity:
Better is a neighbor that is near than a brother far off.
