¹¹ One who loves a pure heart and who speaks with grace
    will have the king for a friend.^(A)

²⁶ An honest answer
    is like a kiss on the lips.

⁶ Wounds from a friend can be trusted,
    but an enemy multiplies kisses.^(A)

⁹ Perfume^(A) and incense bring joy to the heart,
    and the pleasantness of a friend
    springs from their heartfelt advice.

¹⁰ Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
    and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster^(B) strikes you—
    better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
