Proverbs 22:21-27

²¹I therefore teach you truth, and knowledge good to hear; that you may answer words of truth to them that question you.

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

²³For the Lord will plead his cause, and you shall deliver your soul in safety.

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

²⁵lest you learn of his ways, and get snares to your 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 you.
