30 Since they would not accept my advice

and spurned my rebuke,

31 they will eat the fruit of their ways

and be filled with the fruit of their schemes.

32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,

and the complacency of fools will destroy them;

30 They would none of my counsel:

They despised all my reproof.

31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way,

And be filled with their own devices.

32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them,

And the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.

30 They rejected my advice

and paid no attention when I corrected them.

31 Therefore, they must eat the bitter fruit of living their own way,

choking on their own schemes.

32 For simpletons turn away from me—to death.

Fools are destroyed by their own complacency.

30 They would have none of my counsel

And despised my every rebuke.

31 Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way,

And be filled to the full with their own fancies.

32 For the turning away of the simple will slay them,

And the complacency of fools will destroy them;

30 You did not accept my advice,

and you rejected my correction.

31 So you will get what you deserve;

you will get what you planned for others.

32 Fools will die because they refuse to listen;

they will be destroyed because they do not care.

30 They would none of my counsel;

They despised all my reproof.

31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way,

And be filled with their own devices.

32 For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them,

And the careless ease of fools shall destroy them.

30 they would none of my counsel, they despised all my reproof: 31 therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their way, and be filled with their own devices. 32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of the foolish shall cause them to perish.

30 They refused my advice. 

They despised my every warning. 

31 They will eat the fruit of their lifestyle. 

They will be stuffed with their own schemes. 

32 “Gullible people kill themselves because of their turning away. 

Fools destroy themselves because of their indifference. 

30 were not interested in my counsel,

and rejected all my correction,

31 they will eat the fruit of their way

and be glutted with their own schemes.

32 For the turning away of the inexperienced will kill them,

and the complacency of fools will destroy them.

30 would have none of my counsel,

and despised all my reproof,

31 therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way

and be sated with their own devices.

32 For waywardness kills the simple,

and the complacency of fools destroys them;

30 they were not willing to accept my counsel,

they despised all my reproof.

31 They shall eat from the fruit of their way,

and they shall be sated from their own schemes,

32 for the waywardness of the simple ones will kill them,

and the complacency of fools will destroy them.

30 You wouldn’t accept my advice.

You turned your backs on my warnings.

31 So you will eat the fruit of the way you have lived.

You will choke on the fruit of what you have planned.

32 “Childish people go down the wrong path. They will die.

Foolish people are satisfied with the way they live. They will be destroyed.

30 “They would not accept my counsel,

They spurned all my reproof.

31 “So they shall eat of the fruit of their own way

And be satiated with their own devices.

32 “For the waywardness of the naive will kill them,

And the complacency of fools will destroy them.
