In context
24 Do not have friendship with one given to anger, and, with a wrathful man, shall thou not enter in:
25 Lest thou learn his ways, and take a snare to thy soul.
26 Be not of them who strike hands, of them who are sureties for debts:
27 If thou hast nothing to pay, why should one take away thy bed from under thee?
28 Do not move back the ancient boundary, which thy father’s made.
29 Seest thou a man prompt in his business? before kings, shall he stand, he shall not stand before men who are obscure.
