Proverbes 22:26 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 22:26

Be not thou [one] of them that strike hands
Or "among them" F13, of the number of them, that do as they do, give their hand or their bond for others; he surety for them, as it is explained in the following clause; see ( Proverbs 6:1 ) ( 17:18 ) ; [or] of them that are sureties for debts;
contracted by others; that engage for the payment of them, in case the principal fails: and it is much if persons that keep indifferent company, angry and furious men, who are often in broils and quarrels, and spend their time and substance in strife and contention, are not drawn into engagements of this kind.

F13 (b) "inter", Pagninus, Tigurine version, Mercerus, Gejerus, Michaelis.

Proverbes 22:26 In-Context

24 Ne fréquente pas l'homme colère, Ne va pas avec l'homme violent,
25 De peur que tu ne t'habitues à ses sentiers, Et qu'ils ne deviennent un piège pour ton âme.
26 Ne sois pas parmi ceux qui prennent des engagements, Parmi ceux qui cautionnent pour des dettes;
27 Si tu n'as pas de quoi payer, Pourquoi voudrais-tu qu'on enlève ton lit de dessous toi?
28 Ne déplace pas la borne ancienne, Que tes pères ont posée.
