6 My ·child [^Lson], ·be careful about giving [^Lif you make] a guarantee for ·somebody else’s loan [^Lyour neighbor/friend],
    ·about promising to pay what someone else owes [^Lshaking hands with a stranger in agreement; 11:15; 17:18; 20:16; 22:26; 27:13].
² You ·might [or will] get trapped by what you say;
    you ·might [or will] be caught by ·your own words [or what you say].
³ My ·child [^Lson], if you have done this and are under your ·neighbor’s [or friend’s] control,
    here is how to ·get free [extricate yourself].
·Don’t be proud [^LHumble yourself]. Go to your ·neighbor [or friend]
    and ·beg to be free from your promise [^Lpress/urge your neighbor/friend].
