21 Their purpose is to teach you true, reliable words,so you can report back reliably to those who sent you.
22 Don’t steal from the poor, because they are poor.Don’t oppress the needy in the gate.
23 The Lord will take up their caseand press the life out of those who oppress them.
24 Don’t befriend people controlled by anger;don’t associate with hot-tempered people;
25 otherwise, you will learn their waysand become trapped.
26 Don’t shake hands to guarantee a loan.
27 If you can’t repay,why should they be able to take your bed from you?
