27. When he prepared the heavens I was there; when he ordained the circle upon the face of the deep;
28. when he established the skies above, when the fountains of the deep became strong;
29. when he imposed on the sea his decree that the waters should not pass his commandment, when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30. then I was by him his nursling, and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31. rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth, and my delights were with the sons of men.
