Proverbs 27:7-10
7A sated 1man 2loathes honey, But to a famished 3man any bitter thing is sweet.8Like a 4bird that wanders from her nest, So is a man who 5wanders from his 6home.97Oil and perfume make the heart glad, So a 8man’s counsel is sweet to his friend.10Do not forsake your own 9friend or 10your father’s friend, And do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away.
