Proverbs 8:24-29

English Standard Version

²⁴ When there were no ^(A)depths I was ^(B)brought forth,
    when there were no springs abounding with water.
²⁵ Before the mountains ^(C)had been shaped,
    ^(D)before 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 ^(E)established the heavens, I was there;
    when he drew ^(F)a circle on the face of the deep,
²⁸ when he ^(G)made firm the skies above,
    when he established^[a] the fountains of the deep,
²⁹ when he ^(H)assigned to the sea its ^(I)limit,
    so that the waters might not transgress his command,
when he marked out ^(J)the foundations of the earth,
