Proverbs of friends








The poor is hated even by his own neighbour, but the rich has many friends - Proverbs 14:20.

A man of many friends might come to ruin, but there is a Loving One who sticks closer than a brother! - Proverbs 18:24.
Do you have many friends or is the Loving One (Yahuah) the only one!

Wealth adds many friends, but the poor is separated from his friend - Proverbs 19:4.
This is seen every day, not only in money but in alcohol and others!

Many entreat the favour of the noble. And all are friends to him who gives gifts - Proverbs 19:6.
Again, if you are a person that gives or receives many gifts, normally has many friends.













All the brothers of the poor shall hate him; How much more shall his friends go far from him! - Proverbs 19:7.

He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with him who speaks smoothly with his lips - Proverbs 20:19.
The big talker, who knows everything!

Make no friendship with one given to wrath, and do not go with a man of rage, lest you learn his ways, and find yourself ensnared - Proverbs 22:24-25.














Do not eat the bread of one having an evil eye, nor desire his delicacies; for as he reckons in his life, so is he. "Eat and drink!" He says to you, but his heart is not with you - Proverbs 23:6-7.
In other words, being a hypocrite! 

Do not envy evil men, nor desire to be with them; for their heart plots to ravage, and their lips talk of trouble - Proverbs 24:1-2.

Make your foot rare in your neighbour's house, lest he gets enough of you and hate you - Proverbs 25:17.
Very true!











Do not forsake your own friend or your father's friend, and do not go into your brother's house in the day of your calamity - better is a neighbour nearby than a brother far away - Proverbs 27:10.
