| 1 | My child, if you have made a pledge for your neighbor, and have become a guarantor for a stranger, | My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, have given your pledge for a stranger, | My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have shaken hands in pledge for a stranger, | |
| 2 | if you have been ensnared by the words you have uttered, and have been caught by the words you have spoken, | if you are snared in the words of your mouth, caught in the words of your mouth, | you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth. | |
| 3 | then, my child, do this in order to deliver yourself, because you have fallen into your neighbor's power: go, humble yourself, and appeal firmly to your neighbor. | then do this, my son, and save yourself, for you have come into the hand of your neighbor: go, hasten, and plead urgently with your neighbor. | So do this, my son, to free yourself, since you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands: Go—to the point of exhaustion— and give your neighbor no rest! | |
