30. Then I [Wisdom] was beside Him as a master and director of the work; and I was daily His delight, rejoicing before Him always, [Matt. 3:17; John 1:2, 18.]
31. Rejoicing in His inhabited earth and delighting in the sons of men. [Ps. 16:3.]
32. Now therefore listen to me, O you sons; for blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are those who keep my ways. [Ps. 119:1, 2; 128:1, 2; Luke 11:28.]
33. Hear instruction and be wise, and do not refuse or neglect it.
34. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35. For whoever finds me [Wisdom] finds life and draws forth and obtains favor from the Lord.
