Thou hast rebuked the proud {that are} cursed, which do err from thy commandments.

Be not thou {one} of them that strike hands, {or} of them that are sureties for debts.

Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who {is} he {that} will strike hands with me?

Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:
