Proverbs 22:22-24

New American Standard Bible 1995

^22 (A)Do not rob the poor because he is poor,
Or ^(B)crush the afflicted at the gate;
²³ For the Lord will ^(C)plead their case
And ^[a]take the life of those who rob them.

²⁴ Do not associate with a man given to anger;
Or go with a ^(D)hot-tempered man,
