23. I was made in the very beginning,at the first, before the world began.
24. I was born before the oceans,when there were no springs of water.
25. I was born before the mountains,before the hills were set in place,
26. before God made the earth and its fieldsor even the first handful of soil.
27. I was there when he set the sky in place,when he stretched the horizon across the ocean,
28. when he placed the clouds in the sky,when he opened the springs of the ocean
