ERV(i)
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 beginning of the dust of the world.
27 When he established the heavens, I was there: when he set a circle upon the face of the deep:
28 When he made firm the sides above: when the fountains of the deep became strong:
29 When he gave to the sea its bound, that the waters should not transgress his commandment: when he marked out the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, [as] a master workman: and I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in his habitable earth; and my delight was with the sons of men.
