7Fear of Jehovah is a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!
8Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,
9For a graceful wreath are they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.
10My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.
11If they say, 'Come with us, we lay wait for blood, We watch secretly for the innocent without cause,
12We swallow them as Sheol — alive, And whole — as those going down to the pit,
13Every precious substance we find, We fill our houses with spoil,
14Thy lot thou dost cast among us, One purse is — to all of us.'
15My son! go not in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path,
16For their feet to evil do run, And they haste to shed blood.
17Surely in vain is the net spread out before the eyes of any bird.
