If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privately for the innocent without cause:

Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:

13
We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
(AKJV)

Cast in your lot among us; let us all have one purse:
(AKJV)

My son, walk not you in the way with them; refrain your foot from their path:

For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
(AKJV)

Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.

19
So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which takes away the life of the owners thereof.

20
Wisdom cries without; she utters her voice in the streets:
(AKJV)

She cries in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she utters her words, saying,
(AKJV)
Proverbs

:
22
How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
23
Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit to you, I will make known my words to you.
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
24
Because I have called, and you refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
25
But you have set at nothing all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
26
I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear comes;
(AKJV)
Proverbs

:
27
When your fear comes as desolation, and your destruction comes as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish comes on you.
(AKJV)
Proverbs

28
Then shall they call on me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
29
For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
30
They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
31
Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
(AKJV)
Proverbs

:
32
For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
(AKJV)
Proverbs
1
:
33
But whoever listens to me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
