Proverbs 6:1 - The Message

Dear friend, if you’ve gone into hock with your neighbor or locked yourself into a deal with a stranger,
If you’ve impulsively promised the shirt off your back
   and now find yourself shivering out in the cold,
Friend, don’t waste a minute, get yourself out of that mess.
   You’re in that man’s clutches!
   Go, put on a long face; act desperate.
Don’t procrastinate—
   there’s no time to lose.
Run like a deer from the hunter,
   fly like a bird from the trapper!
