Proverbs 8:28-31

28When He made firm the skies above, When the springs of the deep became 1fixed,29When 2He set for the sea its boundary So that the water would not transgress His 3command, When He marked out 4the foundations of the earth;30Then 5I was beside Him, as a master workman; And I was daily His delight, 6Rejoicing always before Him,31 7Rejoicing in the world, His earth, And having 8my delight in the sons of men.
