Proverbs 27:13-15
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
13 Take the garment of one who has given surety for a stranger;
seize the pledge given as surety for foreigners.[a]
14 Whoever blesses a neighbour with a loud voice,
rising early in the morning,
will be counted as cursing.
15 A continual dripping on a rainy day
and a contentious wife are alike;
