# General Information:

Verses 12-14 end the imagined statement of the sinners who are trying to entice others to sin.

# let us swallow them up alive, like Sheol takes away those who are healthy

The sinners speak of murdering innocent people as if they were Sheol and they would take a living and healthy person down to the place where dead people go.

# let us swallow ... like Sheol takes away

This speaks of the grave as if it were a person that swallows humans and takes them down to the place of the dead.

# like Sheol takes away those who are healthy

The wicked expect to destroy their victims in the same way Sheol, the place of the dead, takes away even healthy people.

# those who go down into the pit

These words could be: a literal reference to travelers who fall into a deep hole where no one will ever find them or a euphemism for people who die and enter Sheol, the place of the dead.
