New Testament

Proverbs 1:26-33 English Revised Version (ERV)

26. I also will laugh in the day of your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

27. When your fear cometh as a storm, and your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come upon you.

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

29. For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

30. They would none of my counsel; they despised all my reproof:

31. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

32. For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.

33. But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell securely, and shall be quiet without fear of evil.
