In context
1 Mwanangu, kama utaweka pesa zako kuwa dhamana kwa mkopo wa jirani yako; kama ukitoa ahadi yako katika mkopo wa mtu usiyemjua,
2 basi umejiwekea mtego mwenyewe na umenaswa kwa maneno ya kinywa chako.
3 Mwanagu, ukinaswa kwa maneno yako mwenyewe, fanya haya ili kujiokoa, kwa kuwa umeangukia kwenye mikono ya jirani yako; nenda unyenyekee na ufanye shauri mbele ya jirani yako.
4 Usiruhusu usingizi katika macho yako wala kope za macho yako kusinzia.
