¹⁰ ¶ My son, ^[a]if sinners do entice thee, consent thou not.

¹¹ If they say, Come with us, we will lay wait for ^[b]blood, and lie privily for the innocent without a cause:

¹² We will swallow them up alive like a ^[c]grave, even whole, as those that go down into the pit:

¹³ We shall find all precious riches, and fill our houses with spoil:

¹⁴ Cast in thy lot among us, we will all have one ^[d]purse:

¹⁵ My son, walk not thou in the way with them: refrain thy foot from their ^[e]path.

¹⁶ For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.

¹⁷ Certainly as without cause the net is spread before the eyes of all that hath wing:

¹⁸ So they lay wait for blood, and lie privily for ^[f]their lives.

¹⁹ Such are the ways of everyone that is greedy of gain: he would take away ^[g]the life of the owners thereof.

²⁹ A wicked man deceiveth his neighbor, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.

²⁶ A righteous man falling down before the wicked, is like a troubled well and a corrupt spring.

³ A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty: but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both.

¹⁰ He that causeth the righteous to go astray by an evil way, shall fall into his own pit, and the upright shall inherit good things.
