In context
17And he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him in danger that delivered him.
18Suretyship hath undone many of good estate, And shaken them as a wave of the sea: Mighty men hath it driven from their houses, So that they wandered among strange nations.

20Help thy neighbor according to thy power, And beware that thou thyself fall not into the same.
21The chief thing for life is water, and bread, And clothing, and a house to cover shame.
