ÁnswerWhen in doubt, check other translations to see different renderings and nuances: for example, see NET here:-

Proverbs 29:24

[KJ] 24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.

[GW] 24 Whoever is a thief's partner hates his own life. He will not testify under oath.

[[NASB] 24 He who is a partner with a thief hates his own life; He hears the oath but tells nothing.

[NET] 24 Whoever shares with a thief is his own enemy; he hears the oath to testify, but does not talk.

Answer:One who is "in" with thieves will not testify against them even when he is adjured under a curse-containing oath.

Who is the author of proverbs?

The Hebrew Bible describes the author of Proverbs as 'Solomon, the Son of David, King of Israel.' 1:1 However as Chapter 31 shows they may not all have been written by Solomon. Some Proverbs are ascribed to 'the Sayings of the wise' as mentioned in Proverbs 22:17; 24:23. Chapter 30 is attributed to Agur, Son of Jakeh. Solomon wrote more than three thousand Proverbs but only a small portion of these have been preserved by God. 1 Kings 4:32 Of the work attributed to Solomon, a sufficient amount is Solomon's to speak of Proverbs as being written by him.
