Proverbs
Chapters 19:5-11
Amplified Bible
5A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes out lies shall not escape. [Exod. 23:1; Deut. 19:16-19; Prov. 6:19; 21:28.]
6Many will entreat the favor of a liberal man, and every man is a friend to him who gives gifts.
7All the brothers of a poor man detest him–how much more do his friends go far from him! He pursues them with words, but they are gone.
8He who gains Wisdom loves his own life; he who keeps understanding shall prosper and find good.
9A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he who breathes forth lies shall perish.
10Luxury is not fitting for a [self-confident] fool–much less for a slave to rule over princes.
11Good sense makes a man restrain his anger, and it is his glory to overlook a transgression or an offense.
