Proverbs 27:12-14

Tree of Life Version

¹²The prudent see danger and hide,
but the naïve keep going and pay the penalty.

¹³Take a man’s garment, who puts up security for a stranger,
and hold it in pledge, as security for a seductive woman.

¹⁴If someone blesses his friend with a loud voice early in the morning,
it will be taken as a curse.
