Proverbs 19:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ A witness who lies will not go ·free [unpunished];
liars will never escape.

⁶ Many people ·want to please [^Lseek the face of] a leader,
and everyone is friends with those who give gifts.

⁷ Poor people’s relatives ·avoid [^Lhate] them;
    ·even [^Lhow much more do] their friends stay far away.
They run after them, begging,
    but they are gone.
