	GWT God's Word Translation	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
24	I was born before there were oceans, before there were springs filled with water.	When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water.	When there were no watery depths, I was given birth, when there were no springs overflowing with water;
25	I was born before the mountains were settled in their places and before the hills,	Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth,	before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth,
26	when he had not yet made land or fields or the first dust of the world.	before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world.	before he made the world or its fields or any of the dust of the earth.
27	\|When he set up the heavens, I was there. When he traced the horizon on the surface of the ocean,	When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,	I was there when he set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep,
28	when he established the skies above, when he determined the currents in the ocean,	when he made firm the skies above, when he established the fountains of the deep,	when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,
