Proverbs 29:22-24

The Message

²² Angry people stir up a lot of discord;
    the intemperate stir up trouble.

²³ Pride lands you flat on your face;
    humility prepares you for honors.

²⁴ Befriend an outlaw
    and become an enemy to yourself.
When the victims cry out,
    you’ll be included in their curses
    if you’re a coward to their cause in court.
