10 My son, if sinners lentice you,

11 If they say, “Come with us, mlet us lie in wait for blood;

nlet us ambush the innocent without reason;

12 like Sheol let us oswallow them alive,

and whole, like pthose 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, qdo not walk in the way with them;

rhold back your foot from their paths,

16 for stheir feet run to evil,

and they make haste to shed blood.

17 tFor in vain is a net spread

in the sight of any bird,

18 but these men ulie in wait for their own blood;

they uset an ambush for their own lives.

19 vSuch are the ways of everyone who is wgreedy for unjust gain;

xit takes away the life of its possessors.
