Thematic Bible: Suretiship entered into by striking


Thematic Bible



A man lacking in sense pledges
And becomes guarantor in the presence of his neighbor.

Do not be among those who give pledges,
Among those who become guarantors for debts.

My son, if you have become surety for your neighbor,
Have given a pledge for a stranger,

“Lay down, now, a pledge for me with Yourself;
Who is there that will be my guarantor?
