Proverbs
Chapters 8:20-26
New International Version Anglicized
20I walk in the way of righteousness,along the paths of justice,
21bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love meand making their treasuries full.
22‘The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old;
23I was formed long ages ago,at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
24When there were no watery depths, I was given birth,when there were no springs overflowing with water;
25before the mountains were settled in place,before the hills, I was given birth,
26before he made the world or its fieldsor any of the dust of the earth.
