Bible Verses About Counsel: Rejected

Because I have called, and ye refuse, I stretched out my hand, and none is attending,

And ye slight all my counsel, And my reproof ye have not desired.

I also in your calamity do laugh, I deride when your fear cometh,

When your fear cometh as destruction, And your calamity as a hurricane doth come, When on you come adversity and distress.

Then they call me, and I do not answer, They seek me earnestly, and find me not.

Because that they have hated knowledge, And the fear of Jehovah have not chosen.

They have not consented to my counsel, They have despised all my reproof,

And they eat of the fruit of their way, And from their own counsels they are filled.

For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.

And whoso is hearkening to me dwelleth confidently, And is quiet from fear of evil!'
