25 My birth was beforemountains were formedor hills were put in place.
26 It happened long before Godhad made the earthor any of its fieldsor even the dust.
27 I was there when the Lordput the heavens in placeand stretched the skyover the surface of the sea.
28 I was with him when he placedthe clouds in the skyand created the springsthat fill the ocean.
29 I was there when he setboundaries for the seato make it obey him,and when he laid foundationsto support the earth.
30 I was right beside the Lord,helping him plan and build.I made him happy each day,and I was happy at his side.
31 I was pleased with his worldand pleased with its people.
