Lessons for Daily Life

My child, if you have put up security for a friend's debt
 or agreed to guarantee the debt of a stranger-
if you have trapped yourself by your agreement
 and are caught by what you said--
follow my advice and save yourself,
 for you have placed yourself at your friend's mercy.
Now shallow your pride;
 go and beg to have your named erased.
Don't put it off; do it now!
 Don't rest until you do.
Save yourself like a gazelle escaping from a hunter,
 like a bird fleeing from a net.
Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones.
 Learn from their ways and become wise!
Though they have no prince
 or governor or ruler to make them work,
they labor hard all summer,
 gathering food for the winter.
But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep?
 When will you wake up?
A little extra sleep, a little more slumber,
 a little folding of the hands to rest--
then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit;
 scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.
