¹⁷ 
A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.

²² 
That which is desirable in a man is his loyalty and unfailing love,
But it is better to be a poor man than a [wealthy] liar.

⁶ 
Many a man proclaims his own loyalty and goodness,
But who can find a faithful and trustworthy man?

²⁸ 
Loyalty and mercy, truth and faithfulness, protect the king,
And he upholds his throne by lovingkindness.

²¹ 
He who earnestly seeks righteousness and loyalty
Finds life, righteousness, and honor.^(A)
