My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have shaken hands in pledge for a stranger,

My son, don’t promise to pay for what your neighbor owes. Don’t agree to pay a stranger’s bill.

My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, have given your pledge for a stranger,

My child, if you have put up security for a friend’s debt or agreed to guarantee the debt of a stranger—

My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor or entered into an agreement with a stranger,

My son, if you have become a guarantor for your neighbor, Or have given a handshake for a stranger,

My son, if you become surety for your friend, If you have shaken hands in pledge for a stranger,

My son, if thou art become surety for thy neighbor, If thou hast stricken thy hands for a stranger;

My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor or entered into an agreement with a stranger,

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

My son, if you have become collateral for your neighbor, if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger,

A man void of understanding striketh hands,[ and] becometh surety in the presence of his friend.

Be not thou[ one] of them that strike hands,[ or] of them that are sureties for debts.

He that is surety for a stranger shall smart[ for it]: and he that hateth suretiship is sure.

Take his garment that is surety[ for] a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:

Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

If he hath wronged thee, or oweth[ thee] ought, put that on mine account;I Paul have written[ it] with mine own hand, I will repay[ it]: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.

For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren.

Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who[ is] he[ that] will strike hands with me?

By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
