American Standard Version
"They would none of my counsel, They despised all my reproof. "
— Proverbs 1:30, American Standard Version
“They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.”
“They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.”
“they did not comply with my advice, they spurned all my rebuke.”
“Nor consented to my counsel, but despised all my reproof.”
“They had no desire for my teaching, and my words of protest were as nothing to them.”
“They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.”
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:
For that they hated knowledge, And did not choose the fear of Jehovah,
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.
For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them, And the careless ease of fools shall destroy them.
But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell securely, And shall be quiet without fear of evil.
