King James Version
"Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:"
— Proverbs 1:28, King James Version
“Then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me: ”
“Then will they call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me;”
“Then they will call to me, but I will not answer; they will diligently seek me, but they will not find me.”
“Then shall they call upon me, and I will not hear: they shall rise in the morning, and shall not find me:”
“Then I will give no answer to their cries; searching for me early, they will not see me:”
“Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:”
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, 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, 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.
