American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Now therefore, my sons, hearken unto me;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 {Hebrew: draw forth.}obtain favor of Jehovah.
But he that {Or, misseth me}sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:All they that hate me love death.
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.
{Or, Thou art destroyed, O Israel; for thou &c.}It is thy destruction, O Israel, {Or, for in me, in thy help – Or, but in me is thy help}that thou art against me, against thy help.
