New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁷ A ^(A)friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.
¹⁸ A man lacking in ^[a]sense ^[b](B)pledges
And becomes guarantor in the presence of his neighbor.
¹⁹ He who ^(C)loves transgression loves strife;
He who ^(D)raises his door seeks destruction.
