Proverbs 17:18

A man lacking sense, is one who striketh hands, giving security, before his neighbour.

He that becometh surety for a stranger, goeth to utter ruin, but, he that hateth striking hands, is secure.

My son, if thou have become surety for thy neighbour, - have struck for a stranger thy hands,

Take his garment who is pledge for a stranger, - then, for a woman unknown, accept him as surety.

He that oppresseth the poor, to make increase for himself, giving to the rich, shall surely come to want.

Be not of them who strike hands, of them who are sureties for debts:
