פֶּן־תֶּאֱלַף ארחתו וְלָקַחְתָּ מוֹקֵשׁ לְנַפְשֶֽׁךָ
Lest thou learn his ways, And get a snare to thy soul.
אַל־תְּהִי בְתֹֽקְעֵי־כָף בַּעֹרְבִים מַשָּׁאֽוֹת
Be thou not of them that strike hands, Or of them that are sureties for debts;
אִם־אֵֽין־לְךָ לְשַׁלֵּם לָמָּה יִקַּח מִשְׁכָּבְךָ מִתַּחְתֶּֽיךָ
If thou hast not wherewith to pay, Why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
אַל־תַּסֵּג גְּבוּל עוֹלָם אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ אֲבוֹתֶֽיךָ
Remove not the ancient landmark, Which thy fathers have set.
חָזִיתָ אִישׁ מָהִיר בִּמְלַאכְתּוֹ לִֽפְנֵֽי־מְלָכִים יִתְיַצָּב בַּל־יִתְיַצֵּב לִפְנֵי חֲשֻׁכִּֽים
Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; He shall not stand before mean men.
