Proverbs 8:31-36
311Rejoicing in the world, His earth, And having 2my delight in the sons of men.
32“Now therefore, O sons, 3listen to me, For 4blessed are they who keep my ways.335Heed instruction and be wise, And do not neglect it.346Blessed is the man who listens to me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my doorposts.35For 7he who finds me finds life And 8obtains favor from the Lord.36But he who 9sins against me 10injures himself; All those who 11hate me 12love death.”
