Proverbs 8:32-36

Good News Translation

^32 (A)“Now, young people, listen to me.
    Do as I say, and you will be happy.
³³ Listen to what you are taught.
    Be wise; do not neglect it.
³⁴ Those who listen to me will be happy—
    those who stay at my door every day,
    waiting at the entrance to my home.
³⁵ Those who find me find life,
    and the Lord will be pleased with them.
³⁶ Those who do not find me hurt themselves;
    anyone who hates me loves death.”
