Proverbs 5:10

World English Bible

¹⁰lest strangers feast on your wealth,
and your labors enrich another man’s house.

Proverbs 5:10

Modern English Version

¹⁰lest strangers be filled with your wealth,
and your labors go to the house of a stranger;

6 My son, if you have become collateral for your neighbor,
if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger,

6 My son, if you put up a security for your friend,
if you have shaken hands with a stranger,

¹⁵He who is collateral for a stranger will suffer for it,
but he who refuses pledges of collateral is secure.

¹⁵He who puts up a pledge for a stranger will suffer for it,
and he who hates being a pledge is secure.

¹⁶Take the garment of one who puts up collateral for a stranger;
and hold him in pledge for a wayward woman.

¹⁶Take the garment of him who is a pledge for a stranger,
and hold it as a security when it is for a wayward woman.
