³² “And now, ^(A)O sons, listen to me:
    ^(B)blessed are those who keep my ways.
^33 (C)Hear instruction and be wise,
    and do not neglect it.
^34 (D)Blessed is the one who listens to me,
    watching daily at my gates,
    waiting beside my doors.
³⁵ For ^(E)whoever finds me ^(F)finds life
    and ^(G)obtains favor from the Lord,
