Proverbs 22:25 in context

The verses around it, from Proverbs 22.

21 to show you true and reliable words, that you may soundly answer those who sent you?

22 Do not rob a poor man because he is poor, and do not crush the afflicted at the gate,

23 for the LORD will take up their case and will plunder those who rob them.

24 Do not make friends with an angry man, and do not associate with a hot-tempered man,

25 or you may learn his ways and entangle yourself in a snare.

26 Do not be one who gives pledges, who puts up security for debts.

27 If you have nothing with which to pay, why should your bed be taken from under you?

28 Do not move an ancient boundary stone which your fathers have placed.

29 Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will be stationed in the presence of kings; he will not stand before obscure men.
