Proverbi 22:24

24 Non fare amicizia con l’uomo iracondo e non andare con l’uomo violento,

Proverbi 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.

Proverbi 22:24 In-Context

22 Non derubare il povero perch’è povero, e non opprimere il misero alla porta;
23 ché l’Eterno difenderà la loro causa, e spoglierà della vita chi avrà spogliato loro.
24 Non fare amicizia con l’uomo iracondo e non andare con l’uomo violento,
25 che tu non abbia ad imparare le sue vie e ad esporre a un’insidia l’anima tua.
26 Non esser di quelli che dan la mano, che fanno sicurtà per debiti.
