Proverbs 8:29-36 God's Word Translation (GW)

29. when he set a limit for the seaso the waters would not overstep his command,when he traced the foundations of the earth,

30. I was beside him as a master craftsman.I made him happy day after day,I rejoiced in front of him all the time,

31. found joy in his inhabited world,and delighted in the human race.

32. “Now, sons, listen to me.Blessed are those who follow my ways.

33. Listen to discipline, and become wise.Do not leave my ways.

34. Blessed is the person who listens to me,watches at my door day after day,and waits by my doorposts.

35. Whoever finds me finds lifeand obtains favor from the Lord.

36. Whoever sins against me harms himself.All those who hate me love death.”
