In context
26 I also, at your calamity, will laugh, I will mock, when cometh your dread;
27 When cometh as a crashing your dread, and, your calamity, as a storm-wind, overtaketh, when there come upon you, distress and anguish.
28 Then, will they call me, but I will not answer, they will seek me diligently, but shall not find me.
29 Because they hated knowledge, and, the reverence of Yahweh, did not choose;
30 Consented not to my counsel, disdained all my rebuke,
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and, with their own counsels, be filled.
32 For, the turning away of the simple, will slay them,—and, the carelessness of dullards, will destroy them.
