Proverbs 1



<< Proverbs 1 >>
GOD'S WORD ® Translation
 

27when panic strikes you like a violent storm, when calamity strikes you like a wind storm, when trouble and anguish come to you.

28"They will call to me at that time, but I will not answer. They will look for me, but they will not find me,

29because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD.

30They refused my advice. They despised my every warning.

31They will eat the fruit of their lifestyle. They will be stuffed with their own schemes.

32"Gullible people kill themselves because of their turning away. Fools destroy themselves because of their indifference.

33But whoever listens to me will live without worry and will be free from the dread of disaster."
