Proverbs 1:29 - The Message29-33 “Because you hated Knowledge and had nothing to do with the Fear-of-God, Because you wouldn’t take my advice and brushed aside all my offers to train you, Well, you’ve made your bed—now lie in it; you wanted your own way—now, how do you like it? Don’t you see what happens, you simpletons, you idiots? Carelessness kills; complacency is murder. First pay attention to me, and then relax. Now you can take it easy—you’re in good hands.” See the chapterMore versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 176929 For that they hated knowledge, And did not choose the fear of the LORD: See the chapterAmplified Bible - Classic Edition29 Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord, [Prov. 8:13.] See the chapterAmerican Standard Version (1901)29 For that they hated knowledge, And did not choose the fear of Jehovah, See the chapterCommon English Bible29 because they hated knowledge and didn’t choose the fear of the LORD.
