Proverbs 1:10-19
New King James Version
10 My son, if sinners entice you,
(A)Do not consent.
11 If they say, “Come with us,
Let us (B)lie in wait to shed blood;
Let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;
12 Let us swallow them alive like [a]Sheol,
And whole, (C)like those who go down to the Pit;
13 We shall find all kinds of precious [b]possessions,
We shall fill our houses with [c]spoil;
14 Cast in your lot among us,
Let us all have one purse”—
15 My son, (D)do not walk in the way with them,
(E)Keep your foot from their path;
16 (F)For their feet run to evil,
And they make haste to shed blood.
17 Surely, in [d]vain the net is spread
In the sight of any [e]bird;
18 But they lie in wait for their own blood,
They lurk secretly for their own lives.
19 (G)So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain;
It takes away the life of its owners.
