Proverbs 1:20-33

Wisdom cries without

she utters her voice in the streets

She cries in the chief place of concourse

in the openings of the gates in the city she utters her words, saying

How long

you simple ones will you love simplicity?

and the scorners delight in their scorning

and fools hate knowledge?

Turn you at my reproof

rebuke

scolding

behold

I will pour out my spirit unto you

I will make known my words unto you

Because I have called and you refused

I have stretched out my hand

and no man regarded

But you have set at nothing

despised

all my counsel

and would none of my reproof

rebuke

scolding

I also will laugh at your calamity

I will mock when your fear cometh

When your fear cometh as desolation

and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind

when distress and anguish cometh upon you

Then shall they call upon me

but I will not answer

they shall seek me early

but they shall not find me

For that they hated knowledge

and did not choose the fear of the Lord-Yehōvah

Messiah Pre-Incarnate

They would none of my counsel

they despised all my reproof

rebuke

scolding

Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way

and be filled with their own devices

For the turning away of the simple shall slay them

and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them

But whoso hearkens unto me shall dwell safely

and shall be quiet from fear of evil
