Verse 29 is found in chapter 22 of Proverbs. The opening portion of these words of the wise defends the poor against exploitation and forbids destructive association with people dominated by anger. It also warns against assuming imprudent financial obligations. The conclusion presents the diligent worker as someone who may stand before kings. Wisdom therefore affects social justice, personal relationships, finances, and vocation.
