24 In there being no depths, I was brought forth, || In there being no fountains heavy [with] waters, 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 Before mountains were sunk, || Before heights, I was brought forth. 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 While He had not made the earth, and out-places, || And the top of the dusts 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 In His preparing the heavens I [am] there, || In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep, 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 In His strengthening clouds above, || In His making strong fountains of the deep, 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,
29 In His setting for the sea its limit, || And the waters do not transgress His command, || In His decreeing the foundations of earth, when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth, when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.
