Ignoring Wisdom Spawns Calamity – Proverbs 1:24-27

Welcome To Proverbs Club
Ignoring Wisdom Spawns Calamity
Proverbs 1:24-27 (NIV)

24 But since you refuse to listen when I call
and no one pays attention 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 when disaster strikes you;
I will mock when calamity overtakes you—

27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm,
when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind,
when distress and trouble overwhelm you.

Proverbs Club Commentary

Wisdom calls out to all for their attention.

Ignore her invitation and
suffer the consequences of your foolishness.
