Proverbs 1:8-13

Amplified Bible

⁸ 
My son, hear the instruction of your father,
And do not reject the teaching of your mother.
⁹ 
For they are a garland of grace on your head,
And chains and ornaments [of gold] around your neck.
¹⁰ 
My son, if sinners entice you,
Do not consent.^(A)
11 
If they say, “Come with us;
Let us lie in wait to shed blood,
Let us ambush the innocent without cause;
¹² 
Let us swallow them alive like Sheol (the place of the dead),
Even whole, as those who go down to the pit [of death];
¹³ 
We will find and take all kinds of precious possessions,
We will fill our houses with spoil;
