Proverbs 1:31

Read in context

Proverbs 1:29–33 · Berean Standard Bible

29 For they hated knowledge and chose not to fear the LORD.

30 They accepted none of my counsel; they despised all my reproof.

31 So they will eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

32 For the waywardness of the simple will slay them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them.

33 But whoever listens to me will dwell in safety, secure from the fear of evil.”
