American Standard Version
"But ye have set at nought all my counsel, And would none of my reproof: "
— Proverbs 1:25, American Standard Version
“But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:”
“but you have ignored all my counsel, and wanted none of my reproof;”
“and you neglected all my advice, and did not comply with my rebuke,”
“You have despised all my counsel, and have neglected my reprehensions.”
“You were not controlled by my guiding, and would have nothing to do with my sharp words:”
“But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:”
How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? And scoffers delight them in scoffing, And fools hate knowledge?
Turn you at my reproof: Behold, I will pour out my spirit upon you; I will make known my words unto you.
Because I have called, and ye have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man hath regarded;
But ye have set at nought all my counsel, And would none of my reproof:
I also will laugh inthe day ofyour calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come upon you.
Then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me:
