Proverbs 20:15-17

American Standard Version

¹⁵ There is gold, and abundance of rubies;
But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
¹⁶ Take his garment that is surety for a stranger;
And ^[a]hold him in pledge that is surety for ^[b]foreigners.
¹⁷ Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man;
But afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
