Proverbs 1:23-31

²³Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour forth my spirit unto you, I will make known to you my words.

²⁴Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one regarded;

²⁵and ye have rejected all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

²⁶I also will laugh in your calamity, I will mock when your fear cometh;

²⁷when your fear cometh as sudden destruction, and your calamity cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come upon you:

²⁸— then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me early, and shall not find me.

²⁹Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of Jehovah;

³⁰they would none of my counsel, they despised all my reproof:

³¹therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their way, and be filled with their own devices.
