24 Make no friends with those given to anger, and do not associate with hotheads, 25 or you may learn their ways and entangle yourself in a snare. 26 Do not be one of those who give pledges, who become surety for debts. 27 If you have nothing with which to pay, why should your bed be taken from under you? 28 Do not remove the ancient landmark that your ancestors set up. 29 Do you see those who are skillful in their work? They will serve kings; they will not serve common people. Proverbs 22:24-29, NRSV Catholic Edition. Copyright © 1989, 1993 by the National Council of the Churches of Christ.
