Proverbs 17:18-20
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
18 A foolish man will clap hands, when he is surety for his friend.
19 He that studieth discords, loveth quarrels: and he that exalteth his door, seeketh ruin.
20 He that is of a perverse heart, shall not find good: and he that perverteth his tongue, shall fall into evil.

Proverbs 17:18-20
New International Version
18 One who has no sense shakes hands in pledge
and puts up security for a neighbor.(A)
19 Whoever loves a quarrel loves sin;
whoever builds a high gate invites destruction.
20 One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper;
one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble.
