Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
Traguémoslos vivos como el sepulcro, y enteros como los que descienden al abismo.
Los malvados planean destruir completamente a los inocentes como la muerte misma.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Proverbs, attributed to King Solomon, this verse is part of a father's warning to his son about the dangers of associating with wicked people who plot evil schemes. The imagery of swallowing someone alive like the grave draws from ancient Near Eastern poetic language, symbolizing complete and irreversible destruction, much like death itself. This fits into the broader wisdom literature of the Old Testament, which contrasts the paths of righteousness and folly to guide moral living.
