Matthew(i)
22 The Lord hym self had me in possession in the begynning of hys wayes, or euer he beganne hys workes afore tyme.
23 I haue bene ordeyned from euerlasting, & from the beginning or euer the earthe was made.
24 When I was borne, there were nether depthes nor springs of water.
25 Before the foundacions of the mountaynes were layed, yea, before al hylles was I borne.
26 The earth & all that is vpon the earth was not yet made, no not the grounde it selfe.
27 For when he made the heauens, I was present: when he sette vp the depthes in ordre:
28 when he hanged the cloudes aboue: when he fastened the sprynges of the depe:
29 When he shut the sea within certayn boundes, that the waters should not go ouer their markes. When he layed the foundacions of the earth
30 I was with hym, ordering all thinges, delytynge dayly, and reioysinge all waye before hym.
31 As for the rounde compase of his worlde, I make it ioyfull: for my delyte is to be among the chyldren of men.
