NASB
""Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently but they will not find me,"
— Proverbs 1:28, NASB
“Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, 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 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:”
And you neglected all my counsel And did not want my reproof;
I will also laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your dread comes,
When your dread comes like a storm And your calamity comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you.
"Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently but they will not find me,
Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the LORD.
"They would not accept my counsel, They spurned all my reproof.
"So they shall eat of the fruit of their own way And be satiated with their own devices.
