In context
20 Haven't I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge,
21 To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?
22 Do not exploit the poor, because he is poor; and do not crush the needy in court;
23 for the Lord will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them.
24 Do not befriend a hot-tempered man, and do not associate with one who harbors anger:
25 lest you learn his ways, and ensnare your soul.
26 Do not be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts.
