Proverbs 1:10-19 My son, if sinners entice you, consent you not.… How industrious wicked people are to seduce others into the paths of the destroyer. Sinners love company in sin; the angels that fell were tempters almost as soon as they were sinners. They do not threaten or argue, but entice with flattery and fair speech; with a bait they draw the unwary young man to the hook.. But they mistake if they think that by bringing others to partake with them in their guilt, and to be bound, as it were, in the bond with them, they shall have the less to pay themselves, for they will have so much the more to answer for. ( Matthew Henry.) Parallel Verses KJV: My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. |
