Context
3Upumbavu wa mtu mwenyewe huharibu maisha yake
hata hivyo moyo wake humkasirikia Bwana. 4Mali huleta marafiki wengi,
bali rafiki wa mtu maskini humwacha. 5Shahidi wa uongo hataacha kuadhibiwa,
naye amwagaye uongo hataachwa huru. 6Wengi hujipendekeza kwa mtawala
na kila mmoja ni rafiki wa mtu atoaye zawadi. 7Mtu maskini huepukwa na ndugu zake wote:
Je, marafiki zake watamkwepa kiasi gani!
Ingawa huwafuata kwa kuwasihi,
hawapatikani popote.
