Brenton(i)
24 Since I called, and ye did not hearken; and I spoke at length, and ye gave no heed;
25 but ye set at nought my counsels, and disregarded my reproofs;
26 therefore I also will laugh at your destruction; and I will rejoice against you when ruin comes upon you:
27 yea when dismay suddenly comes upon you, and your overthrow shall arrive like a tempest; and when tribulation and distress shall come upon you, or when ruin shall come upon you.
28 For it shall be that when ye call upon me, I will not hearken to you: wicked men shall seek me, but shall not find me.
29 For they hated wisdom, and did not choose the word of the Lord:
30 neither would they attend to my counsels, but derided my reproofs.
31 Therefore shall they eat the fruits of their own way, and shall be filled with their own ungodliness.
