'Friends' in the Bible

The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath many friends.

A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.

He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.

A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Wealth maketh many friends; but the poor is separated from his neighbour.

All the brethren of the poor do hate him: how much more do his friends go far from him? he pursueth them with words, yet they are wanting to him.
