11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause; If they say, “Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood; let us ambush the innocent without reason; If they say, “Come along with us; let’s lie in wait for innocent blood, let’s ambush some harmless soul;
12 Let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, and whole, as those that go down into the pit; like Sheol let us swallow them alive, and whole, like those who go down to the pit; let’s swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit;
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil; we shall find all precious goods, we shall fill our houses with plunder; we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder;
14 Thou shalt cast thy lot among us; we will all have one purse: throw in your lot among us; we will all have one purse”— cast lots with us; we will all share the loot|—
15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: my son, do not walk in the way with them; hold back your foot from their paths, my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths;
