22 The LORDE himself had me in possessio in the begynnynge of his wayes, or euer he begame his workes aforetyme. 23 I haue bene ordened fro euerlastige, & fro ye beginnynge or euer the earth was made. 24 When I was borne, there were nether depthes ner springes of water. 25 Before the foundacions of ye mountaynes were layed, yee before all hilles was I borne. 26 The earth and all that is vpon the earth was not yet made, no not the grounde it self. 27 For when he made the heauens, I was present: wha he set the depthes in ordre: 28 whan he hanged the cloudes aboue: whan he fastened the sprynges of the depe: 29 Whan he shutt the see within certayne bowndes, that ye waters shulde not go ouer their marckes. When he layed the foundacions of the earth, 30 I was with him, ordringe all thinges, delytinge daylie & reioysynge allwaye before him. 31 As for the roude copase of his worlde, I make it ioyfull, for my delyte is to be amoge the children of men.
