8Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
²She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
³She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
⁴Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
²²The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
²³I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
²⁴When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
²⁵Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
²⁶While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
²⁷When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
²⁸When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
²⁹When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
³⁰Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
³¹Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

Psalm 8

¹O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
²Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
³When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
⁴What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
⁵For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
⁶Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
⁷All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
⁸The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
⁹O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

5Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
²By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
³And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
⁴And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
⁵And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

¹²I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
¹³Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
¹⁴He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
¹⁵All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
