Proverbs 1:27-29 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

²⁷when your dread comes like a storm,

and your destruction like a whirlwind,

when distress and anguish overwhelm you.

²⁸Then they will call on me, but I will not answer;

they will earnestly seek me, but will not find me.

²⁹For they hated knowledge

and chose not to fear the LORD.
