Proverbs 1:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷ How useless to spread a net
    where every bird can see it!
¹⁸ These men lie in wait^(A) for their own blood;
    they ambush only themselves!^(B)
19 Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain;
    it takes away the life of those who get it.^(C)
