Proverbs 8:27-32

New International Version

²⁷ I was there when he set the heavens in place,^(A)
    when he marked out the horizon^(B) on the face of the deep,
²⁸ when he established the clouds above^(C)
    and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,^(D)
29 when he gave the sea its boundary^(E)
    so the waters would not overstep his command,^(F)
and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.^(G)
30     Then I was constantly^[a] at his side.^(H)
I was filled with delight day after day,
    rejoicing always in his presence,
³¹ rejoicing in his whole world
    and delighting in mankind.^(I)

³² “Now then, my children, listen^(J) to me;
    blessed are^(K) those who keep my ways.^(L)
