Proverbs 22:24-29

24 noli esse amicus homini iracundo neque ambules cum viro furioso

25 ne forte discas semitas eius et sumas scandalum animae tuae

26 noli esse cum his qui defigunt manus suas et qui vades se offerunt pro debitis

27 si enim non habes unde restituas quid causae est ut tollat operimentum de cubili tuo

28 ne transgrediaris terminos antiquos quos posuerunt patres tui

29 vidisti virum velocem in opere suo coram regibus stabit nec erit ante ignobiles
