Proverbs 22:24

20Haven’t I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge,

21To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?

22Don’t exploit the poor because he is poor; and don’t crush the needy in court;

23for the LORD will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them.

24Don’t befriend a hot-tempered man. Don’t associate with one who harbors anger,

25lest you learn his ways and ensnare your soul.

26Don’t you be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts.

27If you don’t have means to pay, why should he take away your bed from under you?

28Don’t move the ancient boundary stone which your fathers have set up.
