Proverbs 8:24-31

²⁴In there being no depths, I was brought forth, In there being no fountains heavy with waters,

²⁵Before mountains were sunk, Before heights, I was brought forth.

²⁶While He had not made the earth, and out-places, And the top of the dusts of the world.

²⁷In His preparing the heavens I am there, In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep,

²⁸In His strengthening clouds above, In His making strong fountains of the deep,

²⁹In His setting for the sea its limit, And the waters transgress not His command, In His decreeing the foundations of earth,

³⁰Then I am near Him, a workman, And I am a delight — day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times,

³¹Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, And my delights are with the sons of men.
