19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than precious stones, and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I shall lead in the way of righteousness in the midst of the paths of judgment,
21 that I may cause my friends to inherit existence and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up with eternal dominion, from the beginning, before the earth was.
24 I was begotten before the depths, before the existence of the fountains of many waters.
25 Before the mountains were founded, before the hills was I begotten.
