Proverbs

²¹That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee? ²²Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate: ²³For the Lord will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them. ²⁴Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: ²⁵Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul. ²⁶Be not thou one of them that strike hands, or of them that are sureties for debts. ²⁷If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
