Proverbs 1:10-19

LITV(i) 10 My son, if sinners lure you, do not be willing. 11 If they say, Walk with us, let us lie in wait for blood, let us secretly lurk for the innocent without cause, 12 let us swallow them up alive as Sheol; and whole, as those who go down into the Pit, 13 we shall find all precious goods; we shall fill our houses with plunder; 14 cast in your lot among us; one purse shall be to all of us. 15 My son, do not walk in the way with them! Hold back your foot from their path; 16 for their feet run to evil and they haste to shed blood. 17 For in vain the net is spread in the sight of every bird. 18 And they lie in wait for their own blood; they lurk secretly for their own souls. 19 So are the ways of everyone who gets unjust gain; it takes away its owner's soul.
