ÒThe Lord created me [Wisdom]
at the beginning of his work, the
first of his acts of old. Ages ago I was set up, at the first,
before the beginning of the
earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. Before the mountains had been shaped É then I was beside him, like a master workman, and I was daily his delight.Ó
Proverbs
8:22-31
