Proverbs 19:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ The entire family of a poor person hates him.
How much more do his friends keep their distance from him!
When he chases them with words, they are gone.
⁸ A person who gains sense loves himself.
One who guards understanding finds something good.
⁹ A lying witness will not go unpunished.
One who tells lies will die.
