ISV(i)
24 The Consequences of Refusing Wisdom“Because I called out to you and you refused to respond— I appealed, but no one paid attention—
25 because you neglected all my advice and did not want my correction,
26 I will laugh at your calamity. I will mock when what you fear comes,
27 when what you dread comes like a storm, and your calamity comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.
28 “Then they will call out to me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently, but they will not find me.
29 “Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD;
30 they did not want my advice, and they rejected all my correction.
31 They will eat the fruit of their way, and they will be filled with their own devices.
32 Indeed, the waywardness of the naïve will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them.
