23. You should respond when I correct you.Look, I’ll pour out my spirit on you.I’ll reveal my words to you.
24. I invited you, but you rejected me;I stretched out my hand to you,but you paid no attention.
25. You ignored all my advice,and you didn’t want me to correct you.
26. So I’ll laugh at your disaster;I’ll make fun of you when dread comes over you,
27. when terror hits you like a hurricane,and your disaster comes in like a tornado,when distress and oppression overcome you.
28. Then they will call me, but I won’t answer;they will seek me, but won’t find me
29. because they hated knowledgeand didn’t choose the fear of the Lord.
30. They didn’t want my advice;they rejected all my corrections.
31. They will eat from the fruit of their way,and they’ll be full of their own schemes.
