11 They might say, "Come along with us. Let's hide and wait to spill someone's blood. Let's catch some harmless people in our trap.
12 Let's swallow them alive, as the grave does. Let's swallow them whole, like those who go down into the pit.
13 We'll get all kinds of valuable things. We'll fill our houses with what we steal.
14 Come and join our gang. We'll share everything we have."
15 My son, don't go along with them. Don't even set your feet on their paths.
16 They are always in a hurry to sin. They are quick to spill someone's blood.
17 How useless it is to spread a net while all the birds are watching!
