Good News Translation

3 This evil impulse we have! Why was it ever formed? How did it manage to cover the earth with deceit? 4 Some people will be your friend as long as things are going well, but they will turn against you when trouble comes. 5 A real[a] friend will help you against your enemies[b] and protect you in the fight.
