Proverbs 8:24-29

²⁴ "When there were no depths I was brought forth , When there were no springs abounding with water . ²⁵ " Before the mountains were settled , Before the hills I was brought forth ; ²⁶ While He had not yet made the earth and the fields , Nor the first dust of the world . ²⁷ "When He established the heavens , I was there , When He inscribed a circle on the face of the deep , ²⁸ When He made firm the skies above e , When the springs of the deep became fixed , ²⁹ When He set for the sea its boundary So that the water would not transgress His command , When He marked out the foundations of the earth ;
