New King James Version
Sayings of the Wise
17 Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,
And apply your heart to my knowledge;
18 For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you;
Let them all be fixed upon your lips,
19 So that your trust may be in the Lord;
I have instructed you today, even you.
20 Have I not written to you excellent things
Of counsels and knowledge,
21 (A)That I may make you know the certainty of the words of truth,
(B)That you may answer words of truth
To those who [a]send to you?

Watching daily at my gates,
Waiting at the posts of my doors.

And (C)obtains favor from the Lord;
36 But he who sins against me (D)wrongs his own soul;
All those who hate me love death.”
