Proverbs 1:23-31 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

23. Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

24. Because I have called, and you refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;

25. But you have ignored all my counsel, and would have none of my reproof:

26. I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear comes;

27. When your terror comes as desolation, and your destruction comes as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish comes 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. Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

30. They would have 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.
