6:5 Sweet language will multiply friends: and a fairspeaking tongue will increase kind greetings.
6:6 Be in peace with many: nevertheless have but one counsellor of a thousand.
6:7 If thou wouldest get a friend, prove him first and be not hasty to credit him.
6:8 For some man is a friend for his own occasion, and will not abide in the day of thy trouble.
6:9 And there is a friend, who being turned to enmity, and strife will discover thy reproach.
6:10 Again, some friend is a companion at the table, and will not continue in the day of thy affliction.
6:11 But in thy prosperity he will be as thyself, and will be bold over thy servants.
6:12 If thou be brought low, he will be against thee, and will hide himself from thy face.
6:13 Separate thyself from thine enemies, and take heed of thy friends.
6:14 A faithfull friend is a strong defence: and he that hath found such an one hath found a treasure.
