不要轻易做保

    【箴 6:1】 我儿，你若为朋友作保，替外人击掌，

【Pro 6:1】 My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have struck hands in pledge for another,

【箴 6:2】 你就被口中的话语缠住，被嘴里的言语捉住。

【Pro 6:2】 if you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth,

【箴 6:3】 我儿，你既落在朋友手中，就当这样行，才可救自己：你要自卑，去恳求你的朋友。

【Pro 6:3】 then do this, my son, to free yourself, since you have fallen into your neighbor's hands: Go and humble yourself; press your plea with your neighbor!

【箴 6:4】 不要容你的眼睛睡觉，不要容你的眼皮打盹。

【Pro 6:4】 Allow no sleep to your eyes, no slumber to your eyelids.

【箴 6:5】 要救自己，如鹿脱离猎户的手，如鸟脱离捕鸟人的手。

【Pro 6:5】 Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler.
