Proverbs 1:10-19

10 My son, if sinners entice you, don't consent.

10 My son, if sinful men entice you, do not give in to them.

11 If they say, "Come with us, Let's lay in wait for blood; Let's lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;

11 If they say, “Come along with us; let’s lie in wait for innocent blood, let’s ambush some harmless soul;

12 Let's swallow them up alive like She'ol, And whole, like those who go down into the pit.

12 let’s swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit;

13 We'll find all valuable wealth. We'll fill our houses with spoil.

13 we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder;

14 You shall cast your lot among us. We'll all have one purse."

14 cast lots with us; we will all share the loot”—

15 My son, don't walk in the way with them. Keep your foot from their path,

15 my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths;

16 For their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.

16 for their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood.

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

17 How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it!

18 These lay wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.

18 These men lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush only themselves!

19 So are the ways of everyone who is greedy of gain. It takes away the life of its owners.

19 Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the life of those who get it.
