Proverbs 1:28-33 ▼

28 Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently, but will not find me.

29 Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD,

30 would have none of my counsel, and despised all my reproof,

31 therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way and be sated with their own devices.

32 For waywardness kills the simple, and the complacency of fools destroys them;

33 but those who listen to me will be secure and will live at ease, without dread of disaster.”
