Sprueche 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.

Sprueche 22:26 In-Context

24 Geselle dich nicht zum Zornigen und halte dich nicht zu einem grimmigen Mann;
25 du möchtest seinen Weg lernen und an deiner Seele Schaden nehmen.
26 Sei nicht bei denen, die ihre Hand verhaften und für Schuld Bürge werden;
27 denn wo du es nicht hast, zu bezahlen, so wird man dir dein Bett unter dir wegnehmen.
28 Verrücke nicht die vorigen Grenzen, die deine Väter gemacht haben.
