Proverbs 8:23-29
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
23From eternity I was established, From the beginning, from the earliest times of the earth. 24When there were no ocean depths, I was born, When there were no springs abounding with water. 25Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills, I was born; 26While He had not yet made the earth and the fields, Nor the first dust of the world. 27When He established the heavens, I was there; When He inscribed a circle on the face of the deep, 28When He made firm the skies above, When the springs of the deep became fixed, 29When He set a boundary for the sea So that the water would not violate His command, When He marked out the foundations of the earth;King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 8
23I was formed before ancient times, from the beginning, before the earth began. 24I was born when there were no watery depths and no springs filled with water. 25Before the mountains were established, prior to the hills, I was given birth— 26before he made the land, the fields, or the first soil on earth. 27I was there when he established the heavens, when he laid out the horizon on the surface of the ocean, 28when he placed the skies above, when the fountains of the ocean gushed out, 29when he set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate his command, when he laid out the foundations of the earth.New Living Translation
Chapter 8
23I was appointed in ages past, at the very first, before the earth began. 24I was born before the oceans were created, before the springs bubbled forth their waters. 25Before the mountains were formed, before the hills, I was born — 26before he had made the earth and fields and the first handfuls of soil. 27I was there when he established the heavens, when he drew the horizon on the oceans. 28I was there when he set the clouds above, when he established springs deep in the earth. 29I was there when he set the limits of the seas, so they would not spread beyond their boundaries. And when he marked off the earth’s foundations,English Standard Version
Chapter 8
23Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth. 24When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. 25Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth, 26before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world. 27When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep, 28when he made firm the skies above, when he established the fountains of the deep, 29when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,New International Version
Chapter 8
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 fields or any of the dust of the earth. 27I was there when he set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep, 28when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the fountains of the deep, 29when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.New King James Version
