Proverbs 27:8 Context
6Faithfull are the woundes of a friend: but the kisses of an enemy are deceitfull. 7The full soule loatheth an honie combe: but to the hungry soule euery bitter thing is sweete. 8As a bird that wandreth from her nest: so is a man that wandreth from his place. 9Oyntment and perfume reioyce the heart: so doeth the sweetnesse of a mans friend by heartie counsell. 10Thine owne friend and thy fathers friend forsake not; neither goe in to thy brothers house in the day of thy calamitie: for better is a neighbour that is neere, then a brother farre off.
