Proverbs 27:10-12
Contemporary English Version

10 Don't desert an old friend
    of your family
or visit your relatives
    when you are in trouble.
A friend nearby is better
    than relatives far away.

11 My child, show good sense!
    Then I will be happy
and able to answer anyone
    who criticizes me.
12 Be cautious and hide
    when you see danger—
don't be stupid and walk
    right into trouble.
