Proverbs 25:17-19
American Standard Version
17 Let thy foot be seldom in thy neighbor’s house,
Lest he be [a]weary of thee, and hate thee.
18 A man that beareth false witness against his neighbor
Is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
19 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble
Is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
