Proverbs 1:11-13

New International Reader's Version

¹¹ They might say, “Come along with us.
    Let’s hide and wait to kill someone who hasn’t done anything wrong.
    Let’s catch some harmless person 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.
