23. I was formed in ancient times,at the beginning, before the earth was.
24. When there were no watery depths, I was brought forth,when there were no springs flowing with water.
25. Before the mountains were settled,before the hills, I was brought forth;
26. before God made the earth and the fieldsor the first of the dry land.
27. I was there when he established the heavens,when he marked out the horizon on the deep sea,
28. when he thickened the clouds above,when he secured the fountains of the deep,
