Proverbs 27:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
10 Do not forsake your friend or the friend of your parent;
do not go to the house of your kindred on the day of your calamity.
Better is a neighbour who is nearby
than kindred who are far away.
11 Be wise, my child, and make my heart glad,
so that I may answer whoever reproaches me.
12 The clever see danger and hide;
but the simple go on, and suffer for it.
Proverbs 27:10-12

Proverbs 27:10-12
New International Version
10 Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster(A) strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
11 Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart;(B)
then I can answer anyone who treats me with contempt.(C)
12 The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.(D)
