I have been betrayed by my close friend. I have suffered mentally, emotionally and financially. I need guidance from Gurbani and what does Gurbani say in order to make or follow what path?

All the five sins are responsible for the loss or sufferings. One gets betrayed because of greed, flattering or false hopes.
ਹਿ੍ਰਦੈ ਕਪਟੁ ਮੁਖ ਗਿਆਨੀ ॥ ਝੂਠੇ ਕਹਾ ਬਿਲੋਵਸਿ ਪਾਨੀ ॥੧॥ ਕਾਂਇਆ ਮਾਂਜਸਿ ਕਉਨ ਗੁਨਾਂ ॥ ਜਉ ਘਟ ਭੀਤਰਿ ਹੈ ਮਲਨਾਂ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ (੬੫੬)
Hence, one is supposed to be alert all the time. One has to follow the path of Truth. Understand and follow the Hukam of Akal Purkh as described in Guru Granth Sahib.
ਸਚੈ ਮਾਰਗਿ ਚਲਦਿਆ ਉਸਤਤਿ ਕਰੇ ਜਹਾਨੁ ॥ (੧੩੬)
Thanks
Respected Hardeep Singh ji, I am sorry to know what happened in your life. Gurbani teaches us that our happiness and sadness are actually in our own hands. Nobody can make us sad unless we allow them. Gurbani also tells us that the cause of our miseries is our attachments and our desires. We need to lead a carefree and detached life. We need to find our own purpose in our life that is not dependent on others. Sometimes we need to walk alone and that is also ok if the path is a correct path. Walking on a correct path the universe will be with you in spirits. Do not feel disheartened as we all face such situations. I will suggest you learn from your experiences and move forward on the journey of your life and who knows where your journey is leading you. Best wishes.
Thanks
