New King James Version

Proverbs 27:13-17 New King James Version (NKJV)

13. Take the garment of him who is surety for a stranger,And hold it in pledge when he is surety for a seductress.

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

15. A continual dripping on a very rainy dayAnd a contentious woman are alike;

16. Whoever restrains her restrains the wind,And grasps oil with his right hand.

17. As iron sharpens iron,So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
