27yes 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 you° call upon me, I will not listen 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:
30neither would they attend to my counsels, but derided my reproofs.
31Therefore shall they eat the fruits of their own way, and shall be filled with their own ungodliness.
