1 My son, if you have become a cosigner for your neighbor, if you have shaken hands in pledge with a stranger,
2 if you are trapped by your own words, ensnared by the words of your mouth,
3 then do this, my son, and free yourself, since you fell into your neighbor’s hand: Go, humble yourself, plead with your neighbor!
4 Allow no sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids.
