箴言 1:16 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 1:16

For their feet run to evil
To the evil of sin, to commit robberies and murder, and all manner of iniquity; they are eager upon it, and in haste and swift to do it, ( Proverbs 6:18 ) F24; being carried away with their inordinate affections, which are as feet to the soul; and drawn aside with their lusts, and pushed on by Satan, and, encouraged by one another, and so rush on headlong to the evil of punishment also; and which is a reason why their ways and paths should be abstained from, because they bring upon them swift destruction; it is to their own hurt they run, as Jarchi interprets it; though the first sense seems best to agree with what follows; and make haste to shed blood;
the blood of innocent persons, in order to get their substance, to cover their iniquity and shame, and that no information may be given of them; this is mentioned as having something very horrible in it, in order to deter from joining with them.

箴言 1:16 In-Context

14 你 與 我 們 大 家 同 分 , 我 們 共 用 一 個 囊 袋 ;
15 我 兒 , 不 要 與 他 們 同 行 一 道 , 禁 止 你 腳 走 他 們 的 路 。
16 因 為 , 他 們 的 腳 奔 跑 行 惡 ; 他 們 急 速 流 人 的 血 ,
17 好 像 飛 鳥 , 網 羅 設 在 眼 前 仍 不 躲 避 。
18 這 些 人 埋 伏 , 是 為 自 流 己 血 ; 蹲 伏 , 是 為 自 害 己 命 。
