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. | Do not abandon your friend or your father’s friend, And do not go to your brother’s house on the day of your disaster; Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away. |
A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; The simple pass on and are punished. | A prudent person sees evil and hides himself; But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty. |
As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend. | As iron sharpens iron, So one person sharpens another. |
As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man. | As in water a face reflects the face, So the heart of a person reflects the person. |

Bible verse of the day
Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”Random Bible Verse
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,And whose hope is the Lord.
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when heat comes;
But its leaf will be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought,
Nor will cease from yielding fruit.Next verse!With image
