Sirach 8:13-15 World English Bible (WEB)

13. Be not surety above your power: And if you be surety, take thought as one that will have to pay.

14. Go not to law with a judge; For according to his honor will they give judgement for him.

15. Go not in the way with a rash man, Lest he be aggrieved with you; For he will do according to his own will, And you shall perish with his folly.
