22. Do not abuse poor people because they are poor.And do not take away the rights of the needy in court.
23. The Lord will defend them in court.And he will take the life of those who take away their rights.
24. Don’t make friends with someone who easily gets angry.Don’t spend time with someone who has a bad temper.
25. If you do, you may learn to be like him.Then you will be in real danger.
26. Don’t promise to pay what someone else owes.And don’t give guarantees that you will pay what he owes.
27. If you cannot pay what he owes,your own bed will be taken and sold.
28. Don’t move an old stone that shows where a person’s land is.These stones were set up by your ancestors.
29. Do you see a man skilled in his work?That man will work for kings.He won’t have to work for ordinary people.
