- Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend,
Nor go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity;
Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away. - A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself;
The simple pass on and are punished. - As iron sharpens iron,
So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend. - As in water face reflects face,
So a man’s heart reveals the man.
Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.Next verse!With image
