37 1 Every friend will say, "I too am a friend";
but some friends are friends only in name.
37 2 Is it not a grief to the death
when a companion and friend turns to enmity?
37 3 O evil imagination, why were you formed
to cover the land with deceit?
37 4 Some companions rejoice in the happiness of a friend,
but in time of trouble are against him.
37 5 Some companions help a friend for their stomach's sake,
and in the face of battle take up the shield.
37 6 Do not forget a friend in your heart,
and be not unmindful of him in your wealth.
