They then strive to speak ill of their (late) friend and endeavour to inflict loss on him, and if the loss they sustain be even very small, for all that they, from want of self-control, fail to enjoy peace. He that is learned, examining everything carefully and reflecting well, should, from a distance, avoid the friendship of vile and wicked-minded persons such as these. He that helpeth his poor and wretched and helpless relatives, obtain children and animals and enjoyeth prosperity that knoweth no end.

In plain words: When such friendships end, these people start speaking badly of their old friend and try to harm him, and they find no peace over even small losses. A wise person thinks carefully and keeps far away from such friends. Someone who helps poor and helpless relatives is blessed with family and lasting prosperity.
