Proverbs · chapter 27 · verse 13

Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.Proverbs 27:13 · King James Version

Proverbs 27:13 in context

11My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.

12A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

13Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

14He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.

15A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.

Commentary

This also we had before, Pro 20:16. 1. It shows who those are that are hastening to poverty, those that have so little consideration as to be bound for every body that will ask them and those that are given to women.

— Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
