11 If they shall say, Go with us, we will lie in wait for blood, we will hide for the innocent gratuitously;
12 We will swallow them down living, as hades, and whole, as they going down to the pit:
13 We shall find precious riches, we will fill our houses with spoil:
14 Wilt thou cast thy lot in the midst of us; one purse shall be to all:
15 My son, thou shalt not go in the way with them; withhold thy foot from their beaten paths:
16 For their feet will run to evil, and they will hasten to pour out blood:

27 In your terror coming as a destroying tempest, and your ruin shall come as a whirlwind; in the coming upon you of straits and distress.
28 Then they shall call upon me, and I will not answer; they shall seek me, and shall not find me;
29 For that they hated knowledge, and chose not the fear of Jehovah:
