Be thou not one of them that strike hands,\par\tab {\i Or} of them that are sureties for debts.
He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it;\par\tab But he that hateth suretyship is secure.
A man void of understanding striketh hands,\par\tab And becometh surety in the presence of his neighbor.
Take his garment that is surety for a stranger;\par\tab And hold him in pledge {\i that is surety} for a foreign woman.
