Proverbs 1:24-27 in English

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

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, And would none of my reproof:

²⁶ I also will laugh in the day of your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

²⁷ When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come upon you.

²⁴ Since I called, and ye did not hearken; and I spoke at length, and ye gave no heed;

²⁵ but ye set at nought my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;

²⁶ therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:

²⁷ yea when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.

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

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

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

²⁷ When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

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

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

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

²⁷ When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

²⁴ Since I called, and you° did not listen; and I spoke at length, and you° gave no heed;

²⁵ but you° set at nothing my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;

²⁶ therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:

²⁷ yes when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.

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

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

²⁶ I also will laugh in the day of your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

²⁷ When your fear cometh as a storm, and your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come upon you.

²⁴ But when I called to you, you refused to listen. I beckoned to you to come to me, but you ignored me.

²⁵ I tried to advise you, but you refused to listen to me. I tried to correct you, but you rejected what I told you.

²⁶ So now, when you are experiencing troubles/disasters, I will laugh at you. When things happen that cause you to be afraid, I will make fun of you.

²⁷ When calamities strike you like a big storm, when disasters hit you like a violent wind, when all kinds of things distress you and give you trouble, I will ridicule you!

²⁴ Since I called, and you° did not listen; and I spoke at length, and you° gave no heed;

²⁵ but you° set at nothing my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;

²⁶ therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:

²⁷ yes when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.

²⁴ Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;

²⁵ but you have ignored all my counsel, and wanted none of my reproof;

²⁶ I also will laugh at your disaster. I will mock when calamity overtakes you,

²⁷ when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come on you.

²⁴ Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;

²⁶ I also will laugh at your disaster. I will mock when calamity overtakes you,

²⁷ when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come on you.

²⁴ Because your ears were shut to my voice; no one gave attention to my out-stretched hand;

²⁵ You were not controlled by my guiding, and would have nothing to do with my sharp words:

²⁶ So in the day of your trouble I will be laughing; I will make sport of your fear;

²⁷ When your fear comes on you like a storm, and your trouble like a rushing wind; when pain and sorrow come on you.

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

²⁴ Because I called, and you refused: I stretched out my hand, and there was none that regarded.

²⁵ You have despised all my counsel, and have neglected my reprehensions.

²⁶ I also will laugh in your destruction, and will mock when that shall come to you which you feared.

²⁷ When sudden calamity shall fall on you, and destruction, as a tempest, shall be at hand: when tribulation and distress shall come upon you:

²⁴ For I have called you, but you refused to listen; I reached out my hand to you, but you didn't care.

²⁵ You ignored everything I said; you wouldn't accept any of my warnings.

²⁶ So I'll laugh at you when you're in trouble; I'll mock you when you're in a panic.

²⁷ When panic rains down on you like a storm, when trouble hits you like a whirlwind, when sorrow and pain come on you,

²⁴ Because I haue called, and ye refused: I haue stretched out mine hand, and none woulde regarde.

²⁵ But ye haue despised all my counsell, and would none of my correction.

²⁶ I will also laugh at your destruction, and mocke, when your feare commeth.

²⁷ Whe your feare cometh like sudden desolation, and your destruction shall come like a whirle wind: whe affliction and anguish shall come vpon you,

²⁴ Because I have called, and ye refused, I have stretched out my hand, and no man attended,

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof;

²⁵ And ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would not accept my admonition:

²⁶ Therefore I also will truly laugh at your calamity; I will deride you when your terror cometh;

²⁷ When your terror cometh like the tempest-cloud, and your calamity hasteneth like a whirlwind; when there come upon you distress and affliction.

²⁶ Therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; And I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:

²⁷ Yea when dismay suddenly comes upon you, And your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; And when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, Or when ruin shall come upon you.

²⁴ “Because I have called, and ye have refused,—Because I have stretched out my hand, and no one hath regarded.

²⁵ Because ye have rejected all my counsel, And have slighted my rebuke,—
