At the head of high places by the way, Between the paths she hath stood,

At the side of the gates, at the mouth of the city, The entrance of the openings, she crieth aloud,

Jehovah possessed me -- the beginning of His way, Before His works since then.

From the age I was anointed, from the first, From former states of the earth.
8:24

In there being no depths, I was brought forth, In there being no fountains heavy [with] waters,
8:25

Before mountains were sunk, Before heights, I was brought forth.

While He had not made the earth, and out-places, And the top of the dusts of the world.

In His preparing the heavens I [am] there, In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep,
8:28

In His strengthening clouds above, In His making strong fountains of the deep,

And whoso is missing me, is wronging his soul, All hating me have loved death!
