Proverbs 8:27

²⁵ Before the mountains were settled, before the hills, I was brought forth,

²⁶ before He made the land or fields, or any of the dust of the earth.

I was there when He established the heavens, when He inscribed a circle on the face of the deep,

²⁸ when He established the clouds above, when the fountains of the deep gushed forth,

²⁹ when He set a boundary for the sea, so that the waters would not surpass His command, when He marked out the foundations of the earth.
