The Usefulness of Proverbs
10My son, if sinners entice you, Do not consent.
11If they say, “Come with us, Let’s lie in wait for blood, Let’s ambush the innocent without cause;
12Let’s swallow them alive like Sheol, Even whole, like those who go down to the pit;
13We will find all kinds of precious wealth, We will fill our houses with plunder;
14Throw in your lot with us; We will all have one money bag,”
15My son, do not walk on the way with them. Keep your feet from their path,
16For their feet run to evil, And they are quick to shed blood.
Proverbs 1:10-16 (NASB)
