Proverbs 8:32
Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: For blessed are they that keep my ways.
In context
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, That the waters should not pass his commandment: When he appointed the foundations of the earth: 30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: And I was daily his delight, Rejoicing always before him; 31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; And my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: For blessed are they that keep my ways. 33 Hear instruction, and be wise, And refuse it not. 34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at the posts of my doors. 35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, And shall obtain favour of the LORD.
