Proverbs 20:14-16
American Standard Version
14 It is bad, it is bad, saith the buyer;
But when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
15 There is gold, and abundance of rubies;
But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger;
And [a]hold him in pledge that is surety for [b]foreigners.
