Prv 8:29-36

29When he set for the sea its limit,

so that the waters should not transgress his command;

When he fixed the foundations of earth,

30then was I beside him as artisan;* i

I was his delight day by day,

playing before him all the while,

31Playing over the whole of his earth,

having my delight with human beings.

32* Now, children, listen to me;

happy are they who keep my ways.

33Listen to instruction and grow wise,

do not reject it!

34Happy the one who listens to me,

attending daily at my gates,

keeping watch at my doorposts;

35For whoever finds me finds life,j

and wins favor from the LORD;
