He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: And he that hateth suretiship is sure.
To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; But afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, And take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, And her mouth is smoother than oil:
My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, If thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,
And, behold, there met him a woman With the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
That they may keep thee from the strange woman, From the stranger which flattereth with her words.
