Proverbs 8:12 I wisdom dwell with prudence,
and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of
the paths of judgment:
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.
