Proverbs 1:22-32

NCV

NIV

22 "You fools, how long will you be foolish? How long will you make fun of wisdom and hate knowledge?
22 “How long will you who are simple love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?
23 If only you had listened when I corrected you, I would have told you what's in my heart; I would have told you what I am thinking.
23 Repent at my rebuke! Then I will pour out my thoughts to you, I will make known to you my teachings.
24 I called, but you refused to listen; I held out my hand, but you paid no attention.
24 But since you refuse to listen when I call and no one pays attention when I stretch out my hand,
25 You did not follow my advice and did not listen when I corrected you.
25 since you disregard all my advice and do not accept my rebuke,
26 So I will laugh when you are in trouble. I will make fun when disaster strikes you,
26 I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes you; I will mock when calamity overtakes you—
27 when disaster comes over you like a storm, when trouble strikes you like a whirlwind, when pain and trouble overwhelm you.
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you.
28 "Then you will call to me, but I will not answer. You will look for me, but you will not find me.
28 “Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me,
29 It is because you rejected knowledge and did not choose to respect the Lord.
29 since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD.
30 You did not accept my advice, and you rejected my correction.
30 Since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke,
31 So you will get what you deserve; you will get what you planned for others.
31 they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.
32 Fools will die because they refuse to listen; they will be destroyed because they do not care.
32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them;
