Proverbs 22:23-29 American Standard Version (ASV)

23. For Jehovah 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 this 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.
