Proverbs 1:12-17 English Standard Version (ESV)

12. like Sheol let us swallow them alive,and whole, like those who go down to the pit;

13. we shall find all precious goods,we shall fill our houses with plunder;

14. throw in your lot among us;we will all have one purse”—

15. my son, do not walk in the way with them; hold back your foot from their paths,

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

17. For in vain is a net spreadin the sight of any bird,
