Proverbs 1:23 WEB

²¹  She calls at the head of noisy places. At the entrance of the city gates, she utters her words:

²²  'How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, And fools hate knowledge?

²³  Turn at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.

²⁴  Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;

²⁵  But you have ignored all my counsel, And wanted none of my reproof;
