10 My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them.

12 let's swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit;

13 we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder;

14 throw in your lot with us, and we will share a common purse”—

15 my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths;
