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.
Proverbs 11:15
GOD’S WORD Translation
15 Whoever guarantees a stranger’s loan will get into trouble,
but whoever hates the closing of a deal remains secure.
Proverbs 17:18
GOD’S WORD Translation
18 A person without good sense closes a deal with a handshake.
He guarantees a loan in the presence of his friend.
Proverbs 20:16
GOD’S WORD Translation
16 Hold on to the garment of one who guarantees a stranger’s loan,
and hold responsible the person who makes a loan on behalf of a foreigner.
Proverbs 22:26-27
GOD’S WORD Translation
26 Do not be ⌞found⌟ among those who make deals with a handshake,
among those who guarantee other people’s loans.
27 If you have no money to pay back a loan,
why should your bed be repossessed?
