Warning Against Idolatry
14 Do not be yoked together(A) with unbelievers.(B) For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?(C) 15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[a]?(D) Or what does a believer(E) have in common with an unbeliever?(F) 16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols?(G) For we are the temple(H) of the living God.(I) As God has said:

let’s lie in wait(A) for innocent blood,
let’s ambush some harmless soul;
12 let’s swallow(B) them alive, like the grave,
and whole, like those who go down to the pit;(C)
13 we will get all sorts of valuable things
and fill our houses with plunder;
14 cast lots with us;
we will all share the loot(D)”—
15 my son, do not go along with them,
do not set foot(E) on their paths;(F)
16 for their feet rush into evil,(G)
they are swift to shed blood.(H)
17 How useless to spread a net
where every bird can see it!
18 These men lie in wait(I) for their own blood;
they ambush only themselves!(J)
19 Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain;
it takes away the life of those who get it.(K)
