Read it in 5 translations

Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:

Throw in your lot with us; let us all share one purse”—

You shall cast your lot among us. We’ll all have one purse.”

Thou shalt cast thy lot among us; We will all have one purse:

Thy lot thou dost cast among us, One purse is—to all of us.’

11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:

13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:

14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:

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

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

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