22 It is easy to steal from the poor, but don’t do it. And don’t take advantage of them in court.
23 The Lord is on their side. He supports the poor, and he will take from those who take from them.
24 Don’t be friends with people who become angry easily. Don’t stay around quick-tempered people.
25 If you do, you may learn to be like them. Then you will have the same problems they do.
26 Don’t promise to pay someone else’s debt.
27 If you cannot pay, you will lose everything you have. So why should you lose the bed you sleep on?
28 Never move an old property line that was marked long ago by your ancestors.
