 | A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. |
 | A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. |
 | A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity. |
| Proverbs 17:17 |
Commentary
This proverb lauds faithfulness. Unlike fickle friends (14:20), a true friend is constant, and a real brother helps in times of stress.
