Proverbs 8:36

WisdomDeath and loss

34 Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at the posts of my doorway.

35 For whoever finds me finds life and obtains the favor of the LORD.

But he who fails to find me harms himself; all who hate me love death.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
