24. Shew not thyself friendly with an angry man, And with a man of fury go not in,
25. Lest thou learn his paths, And have received a snare to thy soul.
26. Be not thou among those striking hands, Among sureties [for] burdens.
27. If thou hast nothing to pay, Why doth he take thy bed from under thee?
28. Remove not a border of olden times, That thy fathers have made.
29. Hast thou seen a man speedy in his business? Before kings he doth station himself, He stations not himself before obscure men!
