Proverbs 6:1-3

Common English Bible

6 My son, if you guarantee a loan for your neighbor
    or shake hands in agreement with a stranger,
²     you will be trapped by your words;
    you will be caught by your words.
³ Do this, my son, to get out of it,
    for you have come under the control of your neighbor.
    So go, humble yourself,^[a] and pester your neighbor.
