"If thou wouldst get a friend, try him before thou takest him, and do not credit him easily."
Nel contesto
5A sweet word multiplieth friends, and appeaseth enemies, and a gracious tongue in a good man aboundeth.
6Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be thy counsellor.
7If thou wouldst get a friend, try him before thou takest him, and do not credit him easily.
8For there is a friend for his own occasion, and he will not abide in the day of thy trouble.
9And there is a friend that turneth to enmity; and there is a friend that will disclose hatred and strife and reproaches.
