The Book of Proverbs, Chapter 8, Verse 36

While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

Then I was by him, [as] one brought up [with him]: and I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him;

Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights [were] with the sons of men.

Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed [are they that] keep my ways.

Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.

Blessed [is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.

For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

King James Version

But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

American Standard Version

But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: All they that hate me love death.

New English Translation

But the one who misses me brings harm to himself; all who hate me love death."

World English Bible

But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death."

Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.

She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,

Whoso [is] simple, let him turn in hither: [as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine [which] I have mingled.

Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked [man getteth] himself a blot.

Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

Give [instruction] to a wise [man], and he will be yet wiser: teach a just [man], and he will increase in learning.

The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.
