Proverbs 8:22-31

Third Millennium Bible w/ Apocrypha TMBA

22 "The LORD possessed me at the beginning of His way, before His works of old.

23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

24 When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no fountains abounding with water.

25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth,

26 while as yet He had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the first parts of dust of the world.

27 When He prepared the heavens, I was there; when He set a compass upon the face of the deep,

28 when He established the clouds above, when He strengthened the fountains of the deep,

29 when He gave to the sea His decree that the waters should not pass His commandment, when He appointed the foundations of the earth"

30 then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him, and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always before Him,

31 rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

New International Version NIV

22 “The LORD brought me forth as the first of his works,before his deeds of old;

23 I was formed long ages ago, at the very beginning, when the world came to be.

24 When there were no watery depths, I was given birth, when there were no springs overflowing with water;

25 before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth,

26 before he made the world or its fields or any of the dust of the earth.

27 I was there when he set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep,

28 when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,

29 when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.

30 Then I was constantly at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence,

31 rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.
