New International Version
23 I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
24 When there were no watery depths, I was given birth,
when there were no springs overflowing with water;(A)
25 before the mountains were settled in place,(B)
before the hills, I was given birth,(C)
26 before he made the world or its fields
or any of the dust of the earth.(D)
27 I was there when he set the heavens in place,(E)
when he marked out the horizon(F) on the face of the deep,
28 when he established the clouds above(G)
and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,(H)
29 when he gave the sea its boundary(I)
so the waters would not overstep his command,(J)
and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.(K)
30 Then I was constantly[a] at his side.(L)
I was filled with delight day after day,
rejoicing always in his presence,
