Proverbs 22:22-26
221Do not rob the poor because he is poor, Nor 2crush the needy at the gate;23For the Lord will 3plead their case And 4take the life of those who rob them.
24Do not make friends with a person given to anger, Or go with a 5hot-tempered person,25Or you will 6learn his ways And 7find a snare for yourself.
26Do not be among those who 8shake hands, Among those who become guarantors for debts.
