Proverbs 1:19
King James VersionSource notes
“So the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; taketh away the life of the owners thereof.”
Context
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.
20Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
21She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words,
22How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
