Proverbs 20:15-17

New Century Version

¹⁵ There is gold and plenty of rubies,
    but only a few people speak with knowledge.

¹⁶ Take the coat of someone who promises to pay a stranger’s debts,
    and keep it until he pays what the stranger owes.

¹⁷ Stolen food may taste sweet at first,
    but later it will feel like a mouth full of gravel.
