2. In the congregation of the Most High shall she open her mouth, And glory in the presence of his power.
3. I came forth from the mouth of the Most High, And covered the earth as a mist.
4. I lived in high places, And my throne is in the pillar of the cloud.
5. Alone I compassed the circuit of heaven, And walked in the depth of the abyss.
6. In the waves of the sea, and in all the earth, And in every people and nation, I got a possession.
7. With all these I sought rest; And in whose inheritance shall I lodge?
8. Then the Creator of all things gave me a commandment; And he that created me made my tabernacle to rest, And said, Let your tabernacle be in Jacob, And your inheritance in Israel.
9. He created me from the beginning before the world; And to the end I shall not fail.
10. In the holy tabernacle I ministered before him; And so was I established in Sion.
11. In the beloved city likewise he gave me rest; And in Jerusalem was my authority.
12. And I took root in a people that was glorified, Even in the portion of the Lord’s own inheritance.
13. I was exalted like a cedar in Libanus, And as a cypress tree on the mountains of Hermon.
