Proverbs 6:1-5
GOD’S WORD Translation
Avoid Disaster
6 My son,
if you guarantee a loan for your neighbor
or pledge yourself for a stranger with a handshake,
2 you are trapped by the words of your own mouth,
caught by your own promise.
3 Do the following things, my son, so that you may free yourself,
because you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands:
Humble yourself,
and pester your neighbor.
4 Don’t let your eyes rest
or your eyelids close.
5 Free yourself like a gazelle from the hand of a hunter
and like a bird from the hand of a hunter.
