Proverbs 1:21-26
New International Version
21 on top of the wall[a] she cries out,
at the city gate she makes her speech:
22 “How long will you who are simple(A) love your simple ways?
How long will mockers delight in mockery
and fools hate(B) knowledge?
23 Repent at my rebuke!
Then I will pour out my thoughts to you,
I will make known to you my teachings.
24 But since you refuse(C) to listen when I call(D)
and no one pays attention(E) when I stretch out my hand,
25 since you disregard all my advice
and do not accept my rebuke,
26 I in turn will laugh(F) when disaster(G) strikes you;
I will mock(H) when calamity overtakes you(I)—

Proverbs 1:21-26
New King James Version
21 She cries out in the [a]chief concourses,
At the openings of the gates in the city
She speaks her words:
22 “How long, you [b]simple ones, will you love [c]simplicity?
For scorners delight in their scorning,
And fools hate knowledge.
23 Turn at my rebuke;
Surely (A)I will pour out my spirit on you;
I will make my words known to you.
24 (B)Because I have called and you refused,
I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded,
25 Because you (C)disdained all my counsel,
And would have none of my rebuke,
26 (D)I also will laugh at your calamity;
I will mock when your terror comes,
