Proverbs 27:12-14
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
12 The clever see danger and hide;
but the simple go on, and suffer for it.
13 Take the garment of one who has given surety for a stranger;
seize the pledge given as surety for foreigners.[a]
14 Whoever blesses a neighbour with a loud voice,
rising early in the morning,
will be counted as cursing.
