"The LORD himself had me in possession in the beginning of his ways, before he began his works afore time.

If thou be overseen and negligent in time of need, then is thy strength but small.

Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, see thou forsake not; but go not into thy brother's house in time of thy trouble. Better is a friend at hand than a brother far off.
