21
to show you what is right and true, that you may give a true answer to those who sent you?
22
Do not rob the poor, because he is poor, or crush the afflicted at the gate;

24
Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man,
25
lest you learn his ways and entangle yourself in a snare.
