1 My child, if you have made a pledge for your neighbor, and have become a guarantor 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,

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.
