Proverbs 22:20-28

²⁰And do thou too repeatedly record them for thyself on the table of thine heart, for counsel and knowledge.

²¹I therefore teach thee truth, and knowledge good to hear; that thou mayest answer words of truth to them that question thee.

²²Do no violence to the poor, for he is needy: neither dishonour the helpless man in the gates.

²³For the Lord will plead his cause, and thou shalt deliver thy soul in safety.

²⁴Be not companion to a furious man; neither lodge with a passionate man:

²⁵lest thou learn of his ways, and get snares to thy soul.

²⁶Become not surety from respect of a man's person.

²⁷For if those have not whence to give compensation, they will take the bed that is under thee.

²⁸Remove not the old landmarks, which thy fathers placed.
