24	יַ֣עַן קָ֭רָאתִי וַתְּמָאֵ֑נוּ נָטִ֥יתִי יָ֝דִ֗י וְאֵ֣ין מַקְשִֽׁיב׃	Because I have called and you refused to listen, have stretched out my hand and no one has heeded,	But since you refuse to listen when I call and no one pays attention when I stretch out my hand,
25	וַתִּפְרְע֥וּ כָל־ עֲצָתִ֑י וְ֝תוֹכַחְתִּ֗י לֹ֣א אֲבִיתֶֽם׃	because you have ignored all my counsel and would have none of my reproof,	since you disregard all my advice and do not accept my rebuke,
26	גַּם־ אֲ֭נִי בְּאֵידְכֶ֣ם אֶשְׂחָ֑ק אֶ֝לְעַ֗ג בְּבֹ֣א פַחְדְּכֶֽם׃	I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when terror strikes you,	I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes you; I will mock when calamity overtakes you—
27	בְּבֹ֤א [כשאוה] (כְשׁוֹאָ֨ה ׀) פַּחְדְּכֶ֗ם וְֽ֭אֵידְכֶם כְּסוּפָ֣ה יֶאֱתֶ֑ה בְּבֹ֥א עֲ֝לֵיכֶ֗ם צָרָ֥ה וְצוּקָֽה׃	when terror strikes you like a storm and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.	when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you.
28	אָ֣ז יִ֭קְרָאֻנְנִי וְלֹ֣א אֶֽעֱנֶ֑ה יְ֝שַׁחֲרֻ֗נְנִי וְלֹ֣א יִמְצָאֻֽנְנִי׃	Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me.	“Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me,
29	תַּ֭חַת כִּי־ שָׂ֣נְאוּ דָ֑עַת וְיִרְאַ֥ת יְ֝הֹוָ֗ה לֹ֣א בָחָֽרוּ׃	Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD,	since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD.
30	לֹא־ אָב֥וּ לַעֲצָתִ֑י נָ֝אֲצ֗וּ כָּל־ תּוֹכַחְתִּֽי׃	would have none of my counsel and despised all my reproof,	Since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke,
31	וְֽ֭יֹאכְלוּ מִפְּרִ֣י דַרְכָּ֑ם וּֽמִמֹּעֲצֹ֖תֵיהֶ֣ם יִשְׂבָּֽעוּ׃	therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way, and have their fill of their own devices.	they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.
32	כִּ֤י מְשׁוּבַ֣ת פְּתָיִ֣ם תַּֽהַרְגֵ֑ם וְשַׁלְוַ֖ת כְּסִילִ֣ים תְּאַבְּדֵֽם׃	For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacency of fools destroys them;	For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them;
33	וְשֹׁמֵ֣עַֽ לִ֭י יִשְׁכָּן־ בֶּ֑טַח וְ֝שַׁאֲנַ֗ן מִפַּ֥חַד רָעָֽה׃ פ	but whoever listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of disaster.”	but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.”
