Proverbs 1:28-30

The Voice

²⁸ This is when they will call on me, but I will not respond;
    they will be frantic to find me, but they won’t be able.
²⁹ Because they despised knowledge of my ways,
    and they also refused to respect and honor the Eternal,
³⁰ Because they rejected my advice
    and turned down my correction,
