Proverbs 8:25
Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills was I brought forth:
In context
22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, Before his works of old. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Or ever the earth was. 24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; When there were no fountains abounding with water. 25 Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills was I brought forth: 26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the highest part of the dust of the world. 27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: When he set a compass upon the face of the depth: 28 When he established the clouds above: When he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
