תַּחַת כִּי־שָׂנְאוּ דָעַת וְיִרְאַת יְהֹוָה לֹא בָחָֽרוּ
For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD;
לֹא־אָבוּ לַעֲצָתִי נָאֲצוּ כָּל־תּוֹכַחְתִּֽי
They would none of my counsel, they despised all my reproof.
וְֽיֹאכְלוּ מִפְּרִי דַרְכָּם וּֽמִמֹּעֲצֹתֵיהֶם יִשְׂבָּֽעוּ
Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
כִּי מְשׁוּבַת פְּתָיִם תַּֽהַרְגֵם וְשַׁלְוַת כְּסִילִים תְּאַבְּדֵֽם
For the waywardness of the thoughtless shall slay them, and the confidence of fools shall destroy them.
וְשֹׁמֵעַֽ לִי יִשְׁכָּן־בֶּטַח וְשַׁאֲנַן מִפַּחַד רָעָֽה
But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell securely, and shall be quiet without fear of evil.’
