Before the mountains themselves had been settled down, ahead of the hills, I was brought forth as with labor pains, when as yet he had not made the earth and the open spaces and the first part of the dust masses of the productive land. ” ​ — Proverbs 8: 22 - 26.
पर्वत स्थापित झाल्यापूर्वी, डोंगरांपूर्वी, मला निर्माण केले; त्या वेळापर्यंत त्याने पृथ्वी, शेते व पृथ्वीचा धूलिसंचय ही निर्माण केली नव्हती. ” — नीतिसूत्रे ८: २२ - २६.
