Proverbs 22:22-Proverbs 23:11 - Living With Your Neighbor
22 Do not rob the poor, because he is poor, neither crush thou the oppressed in the gate; 23 For, Yahweh, will plead their cause, and will despoil their despoilers of life.
24 Do not have friendship with one given to anger, and, with a wrathful man, shall thou not enter in: 25 Lest thou learn his ways, and take a snare to thy soul.
26 Be not of them who strike hands, of them who are sureties for debts: 27 If thou hast nothing to pay, why should one take away thy bed from under thee?
28 Do not move back the ancient boundary, which thy father's made.
29 Seest thou a man prompt in his business? before kings, shall he stand, he shall not stand before men who are obscure.
1 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, thou shall consider well, what is before thee; 2 And shalt put a knife to thy throat, if, of great appetite, thou art: 3 Do not crave his dainties, for, the same, are deceitful food.
4 Do not toil to get wealth, of thine own understanding, forbear: 5 Wilt thou let thine eye fly thereupon, when it is nothing? for it will, surely make, itself wings, Like an eagle, will it wing its way across the heavens.
6 Do not eat the food of him that hath a begrudging eye, neither crave thou his dainties; 7 For, just as he hath thought in his own mind, so, he is: Eat and drink! he may say to thee, but, his heart, is not with thee. 8 As for thy morsel thou hast eaten, thou shalt vomit it, so shalt thou waste thy things so sweet.
9 In the ears of a dullard, do not speak, for he will despise the good sense of thy words.
10 Do not move back the ancient boundary, and, into the fields of the fatherless, do not enter; 11 For, their near of kin, is strong, he, will plead their cause with thee.
