Tis the same with me. If I have wronged, correct me.For I am Human. My misunderstanding with the verse, was that (during a time I had been hurt by a few untrue friends), It was better to suffer by them then be stuck with those that would be worse. However, It actually meant to be read:
The truth is better heard from friends, than flattery from one's enemy.
Opps! I hath slipped out of my Medieval speak!
