Proverbs 27:13-19

¹³Take a man's clothing if he makes himself responsible for a strange man, and get an undertaking from him who gives his word for strange men.

¹⁴He who gives a blessing to his friend with a loud voice, getting up early in the morning, will have it put to his account as a curse.

¹⁵Like an unending dropping on a day of rain is a bitter-tongued woman.

¹⁶He who keeps secret the secret of his friend, will get himself a name for good faith.

¹⁷Iron makes iron sharp; so a man makes sharp his friend.

¹⁸Whoever keeps a fig-tree will have its fruit; and the servant waiting on his master will be honoured.

¹⁹Like face looking at face in water, so are the hearts of men to one another.
