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

    all who ^(M)hate me ^(N)love death.”
