Albert Barnes Commentary Proverbs 6:3

"Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, Seeing thou art come into the hand of thy neighbor: Go, humble thyself, and importune thy neighbor;" — Proverbs 6:3 (ASV)

Better, “Do this now, my son, and free yourself when you have come into your friend’s house; go, how yourself down (perhaps “stamp with your foot,” or “hasten”), press hotly upon your friend. By persuasion, and if need be, by threats, get back the bond which you have been entrapped into signing:” The “friend” is, as before, the companion, not the creditor.
