20 I
1 traverse the way of righteousness,
In the midst of the paths of justice,
21 That I may cause those who love me to inherit wealth,
That I may fill their treasuries.
22 “The
a Lord possessed me at the beginning of His way,
Before His works of old.
23 aI have been established from everlasting,
From the beginning, before there was ever an earth.
24 When
there were no depths I was brought forth,
When
there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 aBefore the mountains were settled,
Before the hills, I was brought forth;
26 While as yet He had not made the earth or the
1 fields,
Or the
1 primal dust of the world.
27 When He prepared the heavens, I
was there,
When He drew a circle on the face of the deep,
