Proverbs 1:11-15
King James Version
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:

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

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 If they say, “Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood;
let us wantonly ambush the innocent;(A)
12 like Sheol let us swallow them alive
and whole, like those who go down to the Pit.(B)
13 We shall find all kinds of costly things;
we shall fill our houses with spoil.
14 Throw in your lot among us;
we will all have one purse”—
15 my child, do not walk in their way;
keep your foot from their paths,(C)
