rsv Proverbs:1:22-33
rsv@Proverbs:1:22 @ "How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge?
rsv@Proverbs:1:23 @ Give heed to my reproof; behold, I will pour out my thoughts to you; I will make my words known to you.
rsv@Proverbs:1:24 @ Because I have called and you refused to listen, have stretched out my hand and no one has heeded,
rsv@Proverbs:1:25 @ and you have ignored all my counsel and would have none of my reproof,
rsv@Proverbs:1:26 @ I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when panic strikes you,
rsv@Proverbs:1:27 @ when panic strikes you like a storm, and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.
rsv@Proverbs:1:28 @ Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me.
rsv@Proverbs:1:29 @ Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD,
rsv@Proverbs:1:30 @ would have none of my counsel, and despised all my reproof,
rsv@Proverbs:1:31 @ therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way and be sated with their own devices.
rsv@Proverbs:1:32 @ For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacence of fools destroys them;
rsv@Proverbs:1:33 @ but he who listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of evil."
