Provérbios 22:24 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 22:24

Make no friendship with an angry man
Do not associate with him; contract not a familiarity with him; make him not a companion; take him not into an intimacy, or use him as a particular friend and acquaintance: a man should be courteous, and carry it civilly to all men; but he should take care whom he admits as his bosom friend; he should be cautious in his choice of a familiar friend, and not receive any; and, among the rest, avoid an angry and passionate man, one who is much given to passion himself, and stirs it up in others; for there can be no lasting peace and pleasure in such a man's company and conversation; and with a furious man thou shall not go:
not take a walk with him, much less a journey; or shall not be frequently together. It may be rendered, "unto a man of wraths", or of great wrath and "fury, thou shall not come"; not enter into his house, nor seek his company, and court his conversation, which rather should be shunned.

Provérbios 22:24 In-Context

22 Não roubes ao pobre, porque é pobre; nem oprimas ao aflito na porta;
23 porque o Senhor defenderá a sua causa em juízo, e aos que os roubam lhes tirará a vida.
24 Não faças amizade com o iracundo; nem andes com o homem colérico;
25 para que não aprendas as suas veredas, e tomes um laço para a tua alma.
26 Não estejas entre os que se comprometem, que ficam por fiadores de dívidas.
