Proverbs 8:24-29

24 When there were no ^adepths I was ^bbrought forth,
when there were no springs abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains ^chad been shaped,
^dbefore the hills, I was brought forth,
26 before he had made the earth with its fields,
or the first of the dust of the world.
27 When he ^eestablished the heavens, I was there;
when he drew ^fa circle on the face of the deep,
28 when he ^gmade firm the skies above,
when he established ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain} the fountains of the deep,
29 when he ⁱassigned to the sea its ^jlimit,
so that the waters might not transgress his command,
when he marked out ^kthe foundations of the earth,
