Proverbs 1:24–28 · Berean Standard Bible

24 Because you refused my call, and no one took my outstretched hand,

25 because you neglected all my counsel, and wanted none of my correction,

26 in turn I will mock your calamity; I will sneer when terror strikes you,

27 when your dread comes like a storm, and your destruction like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish overwhelm you.

28 Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; they will earnestly seek me, but will not find me.
