Proverbs 20:16

Take the garment of one who puts up collateral for a stranger; and hold him in pledge for a wayward woman.

Take his garment when he puts up collateral for a stranger. Hold it for a wayward woman.

If you take your neighbor's garment as collateral, you shall restore it to him before the sun goes down,

To deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words;

For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,

that they may keep you from the strange woman, from the foreigner who flatters with her words.

Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute, and with crafty intent.

He who is collateral for a stranger will suffer for it, but he who refuses pledges of collateral is secure.

Do not be one of those who strike hands, of those who are collateral for debts.

For a prostitute is a deep pit; and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
