  1. Philippians 2:6 Or a thing to be held on to for advantage

And they sang (A)a new song, saying,

“Worthy are you to take the scroll
    and to open its seals,

    so that the waters might not transgress his command,
when he marked out (O)the foundations of the earth,
30     then (P)I was beside him, like a master workman,
