1 Samuel 19:5 New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures 5 He risked his life* to strike down the Phi·lisʹtine,+ so that Jehovah brought about a great victory* for all Israel. You saw it, and you were overjoyed. So why should you sin against innocent blood in having David put to death for no reason?”+ Proverbs 17:17 New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures 17 A true friend shows love at all times+And is a brother who is born for times of distress.+ Proverbs 18:24 New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures 24 There are companions ready to crush one another,+But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.+
