12 Let’s swallow them alive, like the grave;let’s swallow them whole, like those who go down to the pit of death.
13 Think of the great things we’ll get!We’ll fill our houses with all the stuff we take.
14 Come, throw in your lot with us;we’ll all share the loot.”
15 My child, don’t go along with them!Stay far away from their paths.
16 They rush to commit evil deeds.They hurry to commit murder.
17 If a bird sees a trap being set,it knows to stay away.
18 But these people set an ambush for themselves;they are trying to get themselves killed.
