24 Do not associate with a man given to anger ; Or go with a hot-tempered man , 25 Or you will learn his ways And find a snare for yourself .
26 Do not be among those who give e pledges e , Among those who become guarantors for debts . 27 If you have nothing with which to pay , Why should he take your bed from under you?
