30 Then I am near Him, a workman, || And I am a delight—day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times, then I was beside him, like a master workman, and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always, Then I was constantly at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence,
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, || And my delights [are] with the sons of men. rejoicing in his inhabited world and delighting in the children of man. rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.
32 And now, you sons, listen to me, || Indeed, blessed are they who keep my ways. “And now, O sons, listen to me: blessed are those who keep my ways. “Now then, my children, listen to me; blessed are those who keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not slight. Hear instruction and be wise, and do not neglect it. Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not disregard it.
34 O the blessedness of the man listening to me, || To watch at my doors day by day, || To watch at the doorposts of my entrance. Blessed is the one who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting beside my doors. Blessed are those who listen to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
35 For whoever is finding me, has found life, || And brings out goodwill from YHWH. For whoever finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD, For those who find me find life and receive favor from the LORD.
36 And whoever is missing me, is wronging his soul, || All hating me have loved death!” but he who fails to find me injures himself; all who hate me love death.” But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me love death.”
