Proverbs 20:16-18
GOD’S WORD Translation
16 Hold on to the garment of one who guarantees a stranger’s loan,
and hold responsible the person who makes a loan on behalf of a foreigner.
17 Food gained dishonestly tastes sweet to a person,
but afterwards his mouth will be filled with gravel.
18 Plans are confirmed by getting advice,
and with guidance one wages war.

hold it in pledge(A) if it is done for an outsider.(B)
18 Plans are established by seeking advice;
so if you wage war, obtain guidance.(E)
