Proverbs 1:8-19
8ListenH8085, my sonH1121, to your father’sH1 instructionH4148, and do not forsakeH5203H408 the teachingH8451 of your motherH517.9ForH3588 theyH1992 are a garlandH3880 of graceH2580 on your headH7218 and a pendantH6060 around your neckH1621.
10My sonH1121, ifH518 sinnersH2400 entice youH6601,do notH408 yieldH14 to them.11IfH518 they sayH559, “ComeH1980 alongH854, let us lie in waitH693 for bloodH1818,let us ambushH6845 the innocentH5355 without causeH2600,12let us swallow themH1104 aliveH2416 like SheolH7585,and wholeH8549 like those descendingH3381 into the PitH953.13We will findH4672 all mannerH3605 of preciousH3368 goodsH1952;we will fillH4390 our housesH1004 with plunderH7998.14Throw inH5307 your lotH1486 with usH8432;let us allH3605 shareH1961 oneH259 purseH3599”—15my sonH1121, do notH408 walkH1980 the roadH1870 with themH854or setH4513 footH7272 upon their pathH5410.16ForH3588 their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451,and they are swiftH4116 to shedH8210 bloodH1818.17HowH3588 futileH2600 it is to spreadH2219 the netH7568where anyH3605 birdH1167H3671 can see itH5869!18But theyH1992 lie in waitH693 for their own bloodH1818;they ambushH6845 their own livesH5315.19SuchH3651 is the fateH734 of allH3605 who are greedyH1214,whose unjust gainH1215 takesH3947 the livesH5315 of its possessorsH1167.
