Proverbs 1:24-33
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
24 Because I have called and you refused,
have stretched out my hand and no one heeded,(A)
25 and because you have ignored all my counsel
and would have none of my reproof,(B)
26 I also will laugh at your calamity;
I will mock when panic strikes you,(C)
27 when panic strikes you like a storm
and your calamity comes like a whirlwind,
when distress and anguish come upon you.
28 Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer;
they will seek me diligently but will not find me.(D)
29 Because they hated knowledge
and did not choose the fear of the Lord,
30 would have none of my counsel
and despised all my reproof,(E)
31 therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way
and be sated with their own devices.(F)
32 For waywardness kills the simple,
and the complacency of fools destroys them;(G)
33 but those who listen to me will be secure
and will live at ease without dread of disaster.”(H)
