Proverbs 1:17LXX

Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 17 of 33

"Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird."
Proverbs 1:17

In context

15My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:

16For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.

17Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.

18And they lay wait for their blood; they lurk privily for their lives.

19So the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
