Proverbs 1:28-33
New American Standard Bible 1995
28 “Then they will (A)call on me, but I will not answer;
They will (B)seek me diligently but they will not find me,
29 Because they (C)hated knowledge
And did not choose the fear of the Lord.
30 “They (D)would not accept my counsel,
They spurned all my reproof.
31 “So they shall (E)eat of the fruit of their own way
And be (F)satiated with their own devices.
32 “For the (G)waywardness of the [a]naive will kill them,
And the complacency of fools will destroy them.
33 “But (H)he who listens to me shall [b]live securely
And will be at ease from the dread of evil.”

New International Version
28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer;(A)
they will look for me but will not find me,(B)
29 since they hated knowledge
and did not choose to fear the Lord.(C)
30 Since they would not accept my advice
and spurned my rebuke,(D)
31 they will eat the fruit of their ways
and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.(E)
32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,
and the complacency of fools will destroy them;(F)
33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety(G)
and be at ease, without fear of harm.”(H)
