New Living Translation
24 “I called you so often, but you wouldn’t come.
I reached out to you, but you paid no attention.
25 You ignored my advice
and rejected the correction I offered.
26 So I will laugh when you are in trouble!
I will mock you when disaster overtakes you—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster engulfs you like a cyclone,
and anguish and distress overwhelm you.
28 “When they cry for help, I will not answer.
Though they anxiously search for me, they will not find me.

I will mock(F) when calamity overtakes you(G)—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster(H) sweeps over you like a whirlwind,
when distress and trouble overwhelm you.

who rescued you from the land of Egypt.
Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with good things.

living according to their own ideas.

‘Listen for the sound of the alarm.’
But you replied,
‘No! We won’t pay attention!’
