The LORDH3068 possessedH7069 me in the beginningH7225 of his wayH1870, beforeH6924 his worksH4659 of old.
I was set upH5258 from everlastingH5769, from the beginningH7218, or everH6924 the earthH776 was.
When there were no depthsH8415, I was brought forthH2342; when there were no fountainsH4599 aboundingH3513 with waterH4325.
Before the mountainsH2022 were settledH2883, beforeH6440 the hillsH1389 was I brought forthH2342:
While as yet he had not madeH6213 the earthH776, nor the fieldsH2351, nor the highest partH7218 of the dustH6083 of the worldH8398. {fields: or, open places} {the highest…: or, the chief part}
When he preparedH3559 the heavensH8064, I was there: when he setH2710 a compassH2329 upon the faceH6440 of the depthH8415: {a compass: or, a circle}
When he establishedH553 the cloudsH7834 aboveH4605: when he strengthenedH5810 the fountainsH5869 of the deepH8415:
When he gaveH7760 to the seaH3220 his decreeH2706, that the watersH4325 should not passH5674 his commandmentH6310: when he appointedH2710 the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776:
Then I was by himH681, as one brought upH525 with him: and I was dailyH3117+H3117 his delightH8191, rejoicingH7832 alwaysH6256 beforeH6440 him;
RejoicingH7832 in the habitable partH8398 of his earthH776; and my delightsH8191 were with the sonsH1121 of menH120.
WhoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of the invisibleG517 GodG2316, the firstbornG4416 of everyG3956 creatureG2937:
WhoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of the invisibleG517 GodG2316, the firstbornG4416 of everyG3956 creatureG2937:
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 of the LaodiceansG2994 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the AmenG281, the faithfulG4103 andG2532 trueG228 witnessG3144, the beginningG746 of the creationG2937 of GodG2316; {of the Laodiceans: or, in Laodicea}
SacrificeH2077 and offeringH4503 thou didst not desireH2654; mine earsH241 hast thou openedH3738: burnt offeringH5930 and sin offeringH2401 hast thou not requiredH7592. {opened: Heb. digged}
Then saidH559 I, Lo, I comeH935: in the volumeH4039 of the bookH5612 it is writtenH3789 of me,
I delightH2654 to doH6213 thy willH7522, O my GodH430: yea, thy lawH8451 is withinH8432 my heartH4578. {within…: Heb. in the midst of my bowels}
The LORDH3068 possessedH7069 me in the beginningH7225 of his wayH1870, beforeH6924 his worksH4659 of old.
I was set upH5258 from everlastingH5769, from the beginningH7218, or everH6924 the earthH776 was.
When there were no depthsH8415, I was brought forthH2342; when there were no fountainsH4599 aboundingH3513 with waterH4325.
Before the mountainsH2022 were settledH2883, beforeH6440 the hillsH1389 was I brought forthH2342:
While as yet he had not madeH6213 the earthH776, nor the fieldsH2351, nor the highest partH7218 of the dustH6083 of the worldH8398. {fields: or, open places} {the highest…: or, the chief part}
When he preparedH3559 the heavensH8064, I was there: when he setH2710 a compassH2329 upon the faceH6440 of the depthH8415: {a compass: or, a circle}
When he establishedH553 the cloudsH7834 aboveH4605: when he strengthenedH5810 the fountainsH5869 of the deepH8415:
When he gaveH7760 to the seaH3220 his decreeH2706, that the watersH4325 should not passH5674 his commandmentH6310: when he appointedH2710 the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776:
Then I was by himH681, as one brought upH525 with him: and I was dailyH3117+H3117 his delightH8191, rejoicingH7832 alwaysH6256 beforeH6440 him;

RejoicingH7832 in the habitable partH8398 of his earthH776; and my delightsH8191 were with the sonsH1121 of menH120.
The LORDH3068 by wisdomH2451 hath foundedH3245 the earthH776; by understandingH8394 hath he establishedH3559 the heavensH8064. {established: or, prepared}
InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG2258 the WordG3056, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 GodG2316.
The sameG3778 wasG2258 inG1722 the beginningG746 withG4314 GodG2316.
All thingsG3956 were madeG1096 byG1223 himG846; andG2532 withoutG5565 himG846 wasG1096 notG3761 any thingG1520 madeG1096 thatG3739 was madeG1096.
HathG2980 inG1909 theseG5130 lastG2078 daysG2250 spokenG2980 unto usG2254 byG1722 his SonG5207, whomG3739 he hath appointedG5087 heirG2818 of all thingsG3956, byG1223 whomG3739 alsoG2532 he madeG4160 the worldsG165;
AndG2532 heG846 isG2076 beforeG4253 all thingsG3956, andG2532 byG1722 himG846 all thingsG3956 consistG4921.
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the shieldH4043 of thy salvationH3468: and thy gentlenessH6031+H6038 hath made me greatH7235. {made…: Heb. multiplied me}
AndG2532 knewG1097 herG846 notG3756 tillG2193+G3739 she had brought forthG5088 herG846 firstbornG4416 sonG5207: andG2532 he calledG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
AndG2532 she brought forthG5088 herG846 firstbornG4416 sonG5207, andG2532 wrappedG4683 himG846 in swaddling clothesG4683, andG2532 laidG347 himG846 inG1722 a mangerG5336; becauseG1360 there wasG2258 noG3756 roomG5117 for themG846 inG1722 the innG2646.
ButG1161 while heG846 thought onG1760 these thingsG5023, beholdG2400, the angelG32 of the LordG2962 appearedG5316 unto himG846 inG2596 a dreamG3677, sayingG3004, JosephG2501, thou sonG5207 of DavidG1138, fearG5399 notG3361 to takeG3880 unto theeG4675 MaryG3137 thy wifeG1135: forG1063 that which is conceivedG1080 inG1722 herG846 isG2076 ofG1537 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {conceived: Gr. begotten}
BeholdG2400, a virginG3933 shall be with childG1722+G1064+G2192, andG2532 shall bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 they shall callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 EmmanuelG1694, whichG3739 being interpretedG3177 isG2076, GodG2316 withG3326 usG2257. {they…: or, his name shall be called}
AndG1161 againG3825, whenG3752 he bringeth inG1521 the firstbegottenG4416 intoG1519 the worldG3625, he saithG3004, AndG2532 letG4352 allG3956 the angelsG32 of GodG2316 worshipG4352 himG846. {again…: or, when he bringeth again}
AndG2532 I fellG4098 atG1715 hisG846 feetG4228 to worshipG4352 himG846. AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto meG3427, SeeG3708 thou do it notG3361: I amG1510 thyG4675 fellowservantG4889, andG2532 of thyG4675 brethrenG80 that haveG2192 the testimonyG3141 of JesusG2424: worshipG4352 GodG2316: forG1063 the testimonyG3141 of JesusG2424 isG2076 the spiritG4151 of prophecyG4394.
WhoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of the invisibleG517 GodG2316, the firstbornG4416 of everyG3956 creatureG2937:
WhoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of the invisibleG517 GodG2316, the firstbornG4416 of everyG3956 creatureG2937:
ForG3754 byG1722 himG846 wereG2936 all thingsG3956 createdG2936, that are inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 that are inG1909 earthG1093, visibleG3707 andG2532 invisibleG517, whetherG1535 they be thronesG2362, orG1535 dominionsG2963, orG1535 principalitiesG746, orG1535 powersG1849: all thingsG3956 were createdG2936 byG1223 himG846, andG2532 forG1519 himG846:
AndG2532 heG846 isG2076 beforeG4253 all thingsG3956, andG2532 byG1722 himG846 all thingsG3956 consistG4921.
AndG2532 heG846 isG2076 the headG2776 of the bodyG4983, the churchG1577: whoG3739 isG2076 the beginningG746, the firstbornG4416 fromG1537 the deadG3498; thatG2443 inG1722 allG3956 things heG846 might haveG1096 the preeminenceG4409. {in…: or, among all}
For it pleasedG2106 the Father thatG3754 inG1722 himG846 shouldG2730 allG3956 fulnessG4138 dwellG2730;
AndG2532 heG846 isG2076 the headG2776 of the bodyG4983, the churchG1577: whoG3739 isG2076 the beginningG746, the firstbornG4416 fromG1537 the deadG3498; thatG2443 inG1722 allG3956 things heG846 might haveG1096 the preeminenceG4409. {in…: or, among all}
AndG2532 fromG575 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, who is the faithfulG4103 witnessG3144, and the first begottenG4416 ofG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 the princeG758 of the kingsG935 of the earthG1093. Unto him that lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 washedG3068 usG2248 fromG575 ourG2257 sinsG266 inG1722 his ownG846 bloodG129,
ForG3754 whomG3739 he did foreknowG4267, heG4309 alsoG2532 did predestinateG4309 to be conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80.
But will GodH430 indeedH552 dwellH3427 on the earthH776? behold, the heavenH8064 and heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannot containH3557 thee; how much lessH637 this houseH1004 that I have buildedH1129?
ForG3754 whomG3739 he did foreknowG4267, heG4309 alsoG2532 did predestinateG4309 to be conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80.
InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG2258 the WordG3056, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 GodG2316.
The sameG3778 wasG2258 inG1722 the beginningG746 withG4314 GodG2316.
All thingsG3956 were madeG1096 byG1223 himG846; andG2532 withoutG5565 himG846 wasG1096 notG3761 any thingG1520 madeG1096 thatG3739 was madeG1096.
The LORDH3068 possessedH7069 me in the beginningH7225 of his wayH1870, beforeH6924 his worksH4659 of old.
ButG1161 ofG1537 himG846 areG2075 yeG5210 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, whoG3739 ofG575 GodG2316 is madeG1096 unto usG2254+G5037 wisdomG4678, and righteousnessG1343, andG2532 sanctificationG38, andG2532 redemptionG629:
And AdamH120 knewH3045+H853 EveH2332 his wifeH802; and she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205+H853 CainH7014, and saidH559, I have gottenH7069 a manH376 fromH854 the LORDH3068. {Cain: that is, Gotten, or, Acquired}
GetH7069 wisdomH2451, getH7069 understandingH998: forgetH7911 it not; neither declineH5186 from the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310.
WisdomH2451 is the principal thingH7225; therefore getH7069 wisdomH2451: and with all thy gettingH7075 get understandingH998.
The oxH7794 knowethH3045 his ownerH7069, and the assH2543 his master'sH1167 cribH18: but IsraelH3478 doth not knowH3045, my peopleH5971 doth not considerH995.
Concerning thy testimoniesH5713, I have knownH3045 of oldH6924 that thou hast foundedH3245 them for everH5769.
Thou hast besetH6696 me behindH268 and beforeH6924, and laidH7896 thine handH3709 upon me.
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 of the LaodiceansG2994 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the AmenG281, the faithfulG4103 andG2532 trueG228 witnessG3144, the beginningG746 of the creationG2937 of GodG2316; {of the Laodiceans: or, in Laodicea}
AndG2532 unto the angelG32 of the churchG1577 of the LaodiceansG2994 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 the AmenG281, the faithfulG4103 andG2532 trueG228 witnessG3144, the beginningG746 of the creationG2937 of GodG2316; {of the Laodiceans: or, in Laodicea}
And thou shalt sayH559 unto PharaohH6547, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, IsraelH3478 is my sonH1121, even my firstbornH1060:
Also I will makeH5414 him my firstbornH1060, higherH5945 than the kingsH4428 of the earthH776.
They shall comeH935 with weepingH1065, and with supplicationsH8469 will I leadH2986 them: I will cause them to walkH3212 by the riversH5158 of watersH4325 in a straightH3477 wayH1870, wherein they shall not stumbleH3782: for I am a fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, and EphraimH669 is my firstbornH1060. {supplications: or, favours}
To the general assemblyG3831 andG2532 churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416, which are writtenG583 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of allG3956, andG2532 to the spiritsG4151 of just menG1342 made perfectG5048, {written: or, enrolled}
InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG2258 the WordG3056, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 GodG2316.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, as weG2257 wentG4198 toG1519 prayerG4335, a certainG5100 damselG3814 possessedG2192 with a spiritG4151 of divinationG4436 metG528 usG2254, whichG3748 broughtG3930 herG846 mastersG2962 muchG4183 gainG2039 by soothsayingG3132: {of divination: or, of Python}
The sameG3778 followedG2628 PaulG3972 andG2532 usG2254, and criedG2896, sayingG3004, TheseG3778 menG444 areG1526 the servantsG1401 of the most highG5310 GodG2316, whichG3748 shewG2605 unto usG2254 the wayG3598 of salvationG4991.
AndG1161 thisG5124 did sheG4160+G1909 manyG4183 daysG2250. ButG1161 PaulG3972, being grievedG1278, turnedG1994 andG2532 saidG2036 to the spiritG4151, I commandG3853 theeG4671 inG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 out ofG575 herG846. AndG2532 he came outG1831 the sameG846 hourG5610.
ForG3754 manyG4183 deceiversG4108 are enteredG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, whoG3588 confessG3670 notG3361 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is comeG2064 inG1722 the fleshG4561. ThisG3778 isG2076 a deceiverG4108 andG2532 an antichristG500.
ForG3754 weG2254 wrestleG3823 notG3756 againstG2076+G4314 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129, butG235 againstG4314 principalitiesG746, againstG4314 powersG1849, againstG4314 the rulersG2888 of the darknessG4655 of thisG5127 worldG165, againstG4314 spiritualG4152 wickednessG4189 inG1722 highG2032 places. {flesh…: Gr. blood and flesh} {spiritual…: or, wicked spirits} {high: or, heavenly}
WhereforeG1223+G5124 take unto youG353 the whole armourG3833 of GodG2316, thatG2443 ye may be ableG1410 to withstandG436 inG1722 the evilG4190 dayG2250, andG2532 having doneG2716 allG537, to standG2476. {having…: or, having overcome all}
StandG2476 thereforeG3767, havingG4024 yourG5216 loinsG3751 girt aboutG4024 withG1722 truthG225, andG2532 having onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of righteousnessG1343;
AndG2532 your feetG4228 shodG5265 withG1722 the preparationG2091 of the gospelG2098 of peaceG1515;
AboveG1909 allG3956, takingG353 the shieldG2375 of faithG4102, wherewithG1722+G3739 ye shall be ableG1410 to quenchG4570 allG3956 the fieryG4448 dartsG956 of the wickedG4190.
AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3162 of the SpiritG4151, which isG3603 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
PrayingG4336 alwaysG1722+G2540+G3956 withG1223 allG3956 prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, andG2532 watchingG69 thereuntoG1519+G5124+G846 withG1722 allG3956 perseveranceG4343 andG2532 supplicationG1162 forG4012 allG3956 saintsG40;
