1 My child, if you have given your pledge to your neighbor, if you have bound yourself to another,

2 you are snared by the utterance of your lips, caught by the words of your mouth.

3 So do this, my child, and save yourself, for you have come into your neighbor’s power: go, hurry, and plead with your neighbor.
