Proverbs 1 — Context

25

But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

26

I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

27

When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

28

Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:

29

For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

30

They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.

31

Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
