22. Rob not the poor, because he is poor, neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:
23. For the Lord will plead their cause, and despoil of life those that despoil them.
24. Make no friendship with a man that is given to anger; and with a wrathful man thou shalt not go:
25. Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
26. Be thou not one of them that strike hands, or of them that are sureties for debts:
27. If thou hast not wherewith to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
28. Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
29. Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.
