6. 27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

8. 29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

9. 30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
