32 “Now therefore, listen to me, my children,
For (A)blessed are those who keep my ways.

And do not disdain it.

Watching daily at my gates,
Waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoever finds me finds life,
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.”
