This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Come with us; we are numerous, and strong, and sociable.



Let us lay wait for blood; to shed blood. He expresseth not their words, which would rather affright than inveigle a young novice; but the true nature and consequence of the action, and what lies at the bottom of their specious pretences.



Lurk privily; so we shall neither be prevented before, nor discovered and punished afterward.



The innocent; harmless travellers, who are more careless and secure, and unprovided for opposition, than such villains as themselves.



Without cause; though they have not provoked us, nor deserved this usage from us. This Solomon adds to discover their malignity and baseness, and so deter the young man from association with them.
