Proverbs:1:24-33
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Because I have called ,
and ye refused ;
I have stretched out my hand ,
and no man regarded ;
*
But ye have set at nought all my counsel ,
and would none of my reproof :
*
I also will laugh at your calamity ;
I will mock when your fear cometh ;
*
When your fear cometh as desolation sha #
avah #,
and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind ;
when distress and anguish cometh upon you .
*
Then shall they call upon me ,
but I will not answer ;
they shall seek me early ,
but they shall not find me :
*
For that they hated knowledge da #
ath #,
and did not choose the fear of the LORD :
*
They would none of my counsel :
they despised all my reproof .
*
Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way ,
and be filled with their own devices mow #
etsah #.
*
For the turning away of the simple shall slay them ,
and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them .
*
But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely ,
and shall be quiet from fear of evil .
