Wisdom will cry without; in the broad places she will give her voice: She will call in the head of sound, in the entrances of the gates: in the city she will say her words: How long, ye simple, will ye love simplicity? and mockers delight to mock for them, and the foolish hate knowledge? read more.
Ye shall turn back at my reproofs: behold, I will pour forth my spirit to you, I will make known my words to you. Because I called and ye will refuse; I stretched forth my hands, and none attending; And ye will reject all my counsels, and ye desired not my reproofs: Also I will laugh at your ruin: I will deride in the coming of your terror; In your terror coming as a destroying tempest, and your ruin shall come as a whirlwind; in the coming upon you of straits and distress. Then they shall call upon me, and I will not answer; they shall seek me, and shall not find me; For that they hated knowledge, and chose not the fear of Jehovah:
