22 “The Lord ·begot [or acquired; possessed] me ·when he began his work [L at the beginning of his path],
long before he made anything else.

even before the world began.
24 I was ·born [brought forth] ·before there were oceans [L when there were no deeps],

25 before the hills were ·there [L settled],
before the mountains I was ·born [brought forth].
