NASB
"Oil and perfume make the heart glad, So a man's counsel is sweet to his friend."
— Proverbs 27:9, NASB
“Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.”
Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
A sated man loathes honey, But to a famished man any bitter thing is sweet.
Like a bird that wanders from her nest, So is a man who wanders from his home.
Oil and perfume make the heart glad, So a man's counsel is sweet to his friend.
Do not forsake your own friend or your father's friend, And do not go to your brother's house in the day of your calamity; Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away.
Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad, That I may reply to him who reproaches me.
A prudent man sees evil and hides himself, The naive proceed and pay the penalty.
