“Don't befriend a hot-tempered man, and don't associate with one who harbors anger:”
Verse in context — Proverbs 22
22
Don't exploit the poor, because he is poor; and don't crush the needy in court;
23
for Yahweh will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them.
24
Don't befriend a hot-tempered man, and don't associate with one who harbors anger:
25
lest you learn his ways, and ensnare your soul.
26
Don't you be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts.
