Bible Verses About Alliance and Society with the Enemies of God

My soul hath long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace.

Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: Depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.

My son, if sinners entice thee, Consent thou not.

If they say, Come with us, Let us lay wait for blood; Let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause;

Let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, And whole, as those that go down into the pit;

We shall find all precious substance; We shall fill our houses with spoil;

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

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

For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant unto thy soul;

Discretion shall watch over thee; Understanding shall keep thee:

To deliver thee from the way of evil, From the men that speak perverse things;

Who forsake the paths of uprightness, To walk in the ways of darkness;

Who rejoice to do evil, And delight in the perverseness of evil;

Who are crooked in their ways, And wayward in their paths:

To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words;

That forsaketh the friend of her youth, And forgetteth the covenant of her God:

For her house inclineth unto death, And her paths unto the dead;

None that go unto her return again, Neither do they attain unto the paths of life:

That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, And keep the paths of the righteous.

Enter not into the path of the wicked, And walk not in the way of evil men.

Avoid it, pass not by it; Turn from it, and pass on.

Leave off, ye simple ones, and live; And walk in the way of understanding.

He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread; But he that followeth after vain persons is void of understanding.

Go into the presence of a foolish man, And thou shalt not perceive in him the lips of knowledge.
