PROVERBS 1:10-18

¹⁰My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

¹¹If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause;

¹²Let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, and whole, as those that go down into the pit;

¹³We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil;

¹⁴Thou shalt cast thy lot among us; we will all have one purse:

¹⁵My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:

¹⁶For their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood.

¹⁷For in vain is the net spread, in the eyes of any bird:

¹⁸And these lay wait for their own blood, they lurk privily for their own lives.
