5 A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who utters lies will not escape.
Many seek the favor of the prince, and everyone is a friend of the gift giver.
7 All the brothers of a poor man hate him— how much more do his friends avoid him! He may pursue them with pleading, but they are nowhere to be found.
