Proverbs 1:25-31
New International Version
25 since you disregard all my advice
and do not accept my rebuke,
26 I in turn will laugh(A) when disaster(B) strikes you;
I will mock(C) when calamity overtakes you(D)—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster(E) sweeps over you like a whirlwind,
when distress and trouble overwhelm you.
28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer;(F)
they will look for me but will not find me,(G)
29 since they hated knowledge
and did not choose to fear the Lord.(H)
30 Since they would not accept my advice
and spurned my rebuke,(I)
31 they will eat the fruit of their ways
and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.(J)
Proverbs 1:25-31
King James Version
25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
