Proverbs 27:9-11
New International Reader's Version
Proverbs 27:9-11
New International Reader's Version
9 Perfume and incense bring joy to your heart.
And the sweetness of a friend comes from their honest advice.
10 Don’t desert your friend or a friend of your family.
And don’t go to your relative’s house when trouble strikes you.
A neighbor nearby is better than a relative far away.
11 My son, be wise and bring joy to my heart.
Then I can answer anyone who makes fun of me.
