In context
26 I will also laugh at your destruction, and mocke, when your feare commeth.
27 Whe your feare cometh like sudden desolation, and your destruction shall come like a whirle wind: whe affliction and anguish shall come vpon you,
28 Then shall they call vpon me, but I will not answere: they shall seeke me early, but they shall not finde me,
29 Because they hated knowledge, and did not chuse the feare of the Lord.
30 They would none of my counsell, but despised all my correction.
31 Therefore shall they eate of ye fruite of their owne way, and be filled with their owne deuises.
32 For ease slaieth the foolish, and the prosperitie of fooles destroyeth them.
