Proverbs 8:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ God had not made the earth or ·fields [open country],
    not even the first ·dust [mud clods; soil] of the earth.
²⁷ I was there when God ·put the skies in place [established the heavens],
    when he ·stretched [decreed] the horizon over the ·oceans [deep],
²⁸ when he ·made [thickened; strengthened] the clouds above
    and put the deep underground springs in place.
