Proverbs 8:22-36

The LORD
<03068>
possessed
<07069> (8804)
me in the beginning
<07225>
of his way
<01870>_,
before
<06924>
his works
<04659>
of old.
I was set up
<05258> (8738)
from everlasting
<05769>_,
from the beginning
<07218>_,
or ever
<06924>
the earth
<0776>
was.
When [there were] no depths
<08415>_,
I was brought forth
<02342> (8797)_;
when [there were] no fountains
<04599>
abounding
<03513> (8737)
with water
<04325>_.
Before the mountains
<02022>
were settled
<02883> (8717)_,
before
<06440>
the hills
<01389>
was I brought forth
<02342> (8797)_:
While as yet he had not made
<06213> (8804)
the earth
<0776>_,
nor the fields
<02351>_,
nor the highest part
<07218>
of the dust
<06083>
of the world
<08398>_.
{fields: or, open places} {the highest...: or, the chief part}
When he prepared
<03559> (8687)
the heavens
<08064>_,
I [was] there: when he set
<02710> (8800)
a compass
<02329>
upon the face
<06440>
of the depth
<08415>_:
{a compass: or, a circle}
When he established
<0553> (8763)
the clouds
<07834>
above
<04605>_:
when he strengthened
<05810> (8800)
the fountains
<05869>
of the deep
<08415>_:
When he gave
<07760> (8800)
to the sea
<03220>
his decree
<02706>_,
that the waters
<04325>
should not pass
<05674> (8799)
his commandment
<06310>_:
when he appointed
<02710> (8800)
the foundations
<04144>
of the earth
<0776>_:
Then I was by him
<0681>_,
[as] one brought up
<0525>
[with him]: and I was daily
<03117> <03117>
[his] delight
<08191>_,
rejoicing
<07832> (8764)
always
<06256>
before
<06440>
him;
Rejoicing
<07832> (8764)
in the habitable part
<08398>
of his earth
<0776>_;
and my delights
<08191>
[were] with the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>_.
Now therefore hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me, O ye children
<01121>_:
for blessed
<0835>
[are they that] keep
<08104> (8799)
my ways
<01870>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
instruction
<04148>_,
and be wise
<02449> (8798)_,
and refuse
<06544> (8799)
it not.
Blessed
<0835>
[is] the man
<0120>
that heareth
<08085> (8802)
me, watching
<08245> (8800)
daily
<03117> <03117>
at my gates
<01817>_,
waiting
<08104> (8800)
at the posts
<04201>
of my doors
<06607>_.
For whoso findeth
<04672> (8802)
me findeth
<04672> (8804) (8675) <04672> (8802)
life
<02416>_,
and shall obtain
<06329> (8686)
favour
<07522>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{obtain: Heb. bring forth}
But he that sinneth
<02398> (8802)
against me wrongeth
<02554> (8802)
his own soul
<05315>_:
all they that hate
<08130> (8764)
me love
<0157> (8804)
death
<04194>_.
