Proverbs 1:9-14 Modern English Version (MEV)

9. for they will be a garland of grace on your head,and chains about your neck.

10. My son, if sinners entice you,do not consent.

11. If they say, “Come with us,let us lie in wait for blood;let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;

12. let us swallow them up alive as the grave,and whole, as those who go down into the pit;

13. we will find all kinds of precious possessions;we will fill our houses with spoil;

14. cast in your lot among us,let us all have one purse”—
