Proverbs 1:13
We will find all manner of precious goods; we will fill our houses with plunder.
BSB
ASV
We shall find all precious substance; We shall fill our houses with spoil;
KJV
We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
The second form of temptation (see Pro 1:10 note) appeals to the main attraction of the robber-life, its wild communism, the sense of equal hazards and equal hopes.
A solemn warning against temptation. entice--literally, "open the way." consent . . . not--Sin is in consenting or yielding to temptation, not in being tempted.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
The walk8
Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

Turn my heart to Your testimonies and not to covetous gain.
Better a little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure with turmoil.
How much better to acquire wisdom than gold! To gain understanding is more desirable than silver.

For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him,
For if the ministry of condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry of righteousness!
