Verse 26. Just. A true friend will make any sacrifice. Calmet.—“I am convinced that friendship can subsist only among the good,” says Cicero. Hebrew “the just hath more, ( Calmet. Prot.) or is more excellent than his neighbour.” Septuagint “the intelligent just is his own friend; (but the sentences of the impious are contrary to equity. Evils shall pursue sinners) but the way,” and so forth Grabe. Bible.
