Proverbs
Chapters 20:16-22
New International Version Anglicized
16Take the garment of one who puts up security for a stranger;hold it in pledge if it is done for an outsider.
17Food gained by fraud tastes sweet,but one ends up with a mouth full of gravel.
18Plans are established by seeking advice;so if you wage war, obtain guidance.
19A gossip betrays a confidence;so avoid anyone who talks too much.
20If someone curses their father or mother,their lamp will be snuffed out in pitch darkness.
21An inheritance claimed too soonwill not be blessed at the end.
22Do not say, ‘I’ll pay you back for this wrong!’Wait for the Lord, and he will avenge you.
