| 16 | because their feet run toward evil and they hurry to shed blood. | for their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood. | for their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood. | |
| 17 | It is useless to spread a net where any bird can see it, | For in vain is a net spread in the sight of any bird, | How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it! | |
| 18 | but they set an ambush to kill themselves; they attack their own lives. | but these men lie in wait for their own blood; they set an ambush for their own lives. | These men lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush only themselves! | |
| 19 | Such are the paths of all who make profit dishonestly; it takes the lives of those who receive it. | Such are the ways of everyone who is greedy for unjust gain; it takes away the life of its possessors. | Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the life of those who get it. | |
