Proverbs 19:5-7

The Message

⁵ Perjury won’t go unpunished.
    Would you let a liar go free?

⁶ Lots of people flock around a generous person;
    everyone’s a friend to the philanthropist.

⁷ When you’re down on your luck, even your family avoids you—
    yes, even your best friends wish you’d get lost.
If they see you coming, they look the other way—
    out of sight, out of mind.
