Prov. 1:11‑19• 11If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;
 12let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, and whole, as those that go down into the pit;
 13we shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
 14cast in thy lot among us; we will all have one purse:
 15--my son, walk not in the way with them, keep back thy foot from their path;
 16for their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood.
 17For in vain the net is spread in the sight of anything which hath wings.
