“Do not slander a slave to his master, or he will curse you and you will be found guilty” (Proverbs 30:10). We must not forsake our heavenly Father’s friends: Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away. —PROVERBS 27:10, EMPHASIS ADDED
