^{1 Ref} My son, if you have made yourself responsible for your neighbour, or given your word for another,

^{2 Ref} You are taken as in a net by the words of your mouth, the sayings of your lips have overcome you.

^{3 Ref} Do this, my son, and make yourself free, because you have come into the power of your neighbour; go without waiting, and make a strong request to your neighbour.

^{4 Ref} Give no sleep to your eyes, or rest to them;

^{5 Ref} Make yourself free, like the roe from the hand of the archer, and the bird from him who puts a net for her.
