Proverbs 27:9-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 27
9
Oil and perfume make the heart glad,
And a person’s advice is sweet to his friend.
10
Do not abandon your friend or your father’s friend,
And do not go to your brother’s house on the day of your disaster;
Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away.
King James Version
Chapter 27
9
Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so
doth
the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
10
Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity:
for
better
is
a neighbour
that is
near than a brother far off.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 27
9
Oil and incense bring joy to the heart, and the sweetness of a friend is better than self-counsel.
10
Don't abandon your friend or your father's friend, and don't go to your brother's house in your time of calamity; better a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.
New Living Translation
Chapter 27
9
The heartfelt counsel of a friend
is as sweet as perfume and incense.
10
Never abandon a friend —
either yours or your father’s.
When disaster strikes, you won’t have to ask your brother for assistance.
It’s better to go to a neighbor than to a brother who lives far away.
English Standard Version
Chapter 27
9
Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.
10
Do not forsake your friend and 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 who is far away.
New International Version
Chapter 27
9
Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice.
10
Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family, and do not go to your relative's house when disaster strikes you-- better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
New King James Version
Chapter 27
9
Ointment and perfume delight the heart,
And the sweetness of a man’s friend
gives delight
by hearty counsel.
10
Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend,
Nor go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity;
Better
is
a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.
