21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in 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 highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there; when he set a compass upon the face of the depth;
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.
