“The Lord formed me from the beginning,
    before he created anything else.
I was appointed in ages past,
    at the very first, before the earth began.
I was born before the oceans were created,
    before the springs bubbled forth their waters.
Before the mountains were formed,
    before the hills, I was born—
before he had made the earth and fields
    and the first handfuls of soil.
I was there when he established the heavens,
    when he drew the horizon on the oceans.
I was there when he set the clouds above,
    when he established springs deep in the earth.
I 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,
I was the architect at his side.
I was his constant delight,
    rejoicing always in his presence.
And how happy I was with the world he created;
    how I rejoiced with the human family!

-Proverbs 8:22-31 NLT
