Proverbs 19:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵ A lying witness will not go unpunished.
One who tells lies will not escape.
⁶ Many try to win the kindness of a generous person,
and everyone is a friend to a person who gives gifts.
⁷ The entire family of a poor person hates him.
How much more do his friends keep their distance from him!
When he chases them with words, they are gone.
