Proverbs 6:1-4

¹My son, if thou hast become surety for another, If thou hast stricken hands for another,

²If thou hast become ensnared by the words of thy mouth, If thou hast been caught by the words of thy mouth,

³Do this now, my son, and rescue thyself,—Since thou hast fallen into the hands of thy neighbor,—Go, prostrate thyself, and be urgent with thy neighbor!

⁴Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids;
