Proverbs

²⁸Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me diligently, but they shall not find me: ²⁹For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: ³⁰They would none of my counsel; they despised all my reproof: ³¹Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. ³²For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. ³³But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell securely, and shall be quiet without fear of evil.
