En contexte
28Keep fidelity with a friend in his poverty, that in his prosperity also thou mayst rejoice.
29In the time of his trouble continue faithful to him, that thou mayst also be heir with him in his inheritance.
30As the vapour of a chimney, and the smoke of the fire goeth up before the fire: so also injurious words, and reproaches, and threats, before blood.
31I will not be ashamed to salute a friend, neither will I hide myself from his face: and if any evil happen to me by him, I will bear it.
32But every one that shall hear it, will beware of him.
