24Since I called, and ye did not hearken; And I spoke at length, and ye gave no heed;
25But ye set at nought my counsels, And disregarded my reproofs;
26Therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; And I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:
27Yea 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.
28For it shall be that when ye call upon me, I will not hearken to you: Wicked men shall seek me, but shall not find me.
29For they hated wisdom, And did not choose the word of the Lord:
