Proverbs 1:29-33
Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the Lord, 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; 33 But whoever listens to me will dwell safely, And will be secure, without fear of evil.”

Those who mock God and despise what Jesus told us by hating His word and not willing to obey Him will simply reap what they sow. The wages of sin is death as they fill themselves with their desires instead of God's. But those who choose to listen to God, living by the words in the Bible, will be safe and secure from evil, able to rest at night and during waking moments, because they trust Christ Jesus.
