Proverbs 8:17-28

1. 17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

2. 18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.

3. 19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.

4. 20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

5. 21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.

6. 22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

7. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

8. 24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

9. 25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

10. 26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

11. 27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

12. 28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
