Proverbs 8:22-31

22 The Lord made me at the beginning of His creation, before His works of long ago.

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

23 I was formed before ancient times, from the beginning, before the earth began.

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

24 I was brought forth when there were no watery depths and no springs filled with water.

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

25 I was brought forth before the mountains and hills were established,

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

26 before He made the land, the fields, or the first soil on earth.

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

27 I was there when He established the heavens, when He laid out the horizon on the surface of the ocean,

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 placed the skies above, when the fountains of the ocean gushed forth,

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

29 when He set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate His command, when He laid out the foundations of the earth.

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 I was a skilled craftsman beside Him. I was His delight every day, always rejoicing before Him.

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

31 I was rejoicing in His inhabited world, delighting in the human race.

31 rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.
