{29:16} Better than the shield or the lance of a powerful man,
{29:17} it will fight for you against your enemy.
{29:18} A good man offers credit for the sake of his neighbor. But one who abandons him to himself will perish in shame.
{29:19} You should not forget the kindness of your benefactor. For he has offered his life on your behalf.
{29:20} The sinner and the unclean flee from such promises.
