Proverbs 1:13

     11-14. Murder and robbery are given as specific illustrations.

      lay wait . . . lurk privily—express an effort and hope for successful concealment.

      swallow . . . grave—utterly destroy the victim and traces of the crime (Nu 16:33; Ps 55:15). Abundant rewards of villainy are promised as the fruits of this easy and safe course.
