Proverbs 17:16-18
New King James Version
16 Why is there in the hand of a fool the purchase price of wisdom,
Since he has no heart for it?
17 (A)A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.
18 (B)A man devoid of [a]understanding [b]shakes hands in a pledge,
And becomes [c]surety for his friend.
