New King James Version
24 (A)Because I have called and you refused,
I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded,

And would have none of my rebuke,

I will mock when your terror comes,
27 When (D)your terror comes like a storm,
And your destruction comes like a whirlwind,
When distress and anguish come upon you.

They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me.
