And do not make your hand [as] chained to your neck or extend it completely and [thereby] become blamed and insolvent.

Make not thy hand tied (like a niggard's) to thy neck, nor stretch it forth to its utmost reach, so that thou become blameworthy and destitute.

And let not thy hand be chained to thy neck nor open it with a complete opening, lest thou sit down rebuked, denuded.
