“And now, O sons, listen to me:

blessed are those who keep my ways.

Hear instruction and be wise,

and do not neglect it.

Blessed is the one who listens to me,

watching daily at my gates,

waiting beside my doors.

For whoever finds me finds life

and obtains favor from the Lord,

but he who fails to find me injures himself;

all who hate me love death.”

“And now, children, listen to me;

happy are those who will keep my ways.

Hear teaching and be wise;

do not neglect it.

Happy is the person who listens to me,

in order to keep watch at my doors day by day,

in order to guard the frames of my entrances.

For he who finds me is he who finds life,

and he obtains favor from Yahweh.

But he who misses me injures himself.

All those who hate me love death.”

Waiting at the posts of my doors.

For whoso findeth me findeth life,

And shall obtain favour of the Lord.

All they that hate me love death.
