Proverbs 27:13-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

13. Take his garment when he becomes surety for a stranger; And for an adulterous woman hold him in pledge.

14. He who blesses his friend with a loud voice early in the morning, It will be reckoned a curse to him.

15. A constant dripping on a day of steady rain And a contentious woman are alike;

16. He who would restrain her restrains the wind, And grasps oil with his right hand.

17. Iron sharpens iron, So one man sharpens another.

18. He who tends the fig tree will eat its fruit, And he who cares for his master will be honored.
