“ When he [Jehovah] prepared the heavens I was there, ” continues wisdom personified, “when he decreed a circle upon the face of the watery deep, when he made firm the cloud masses above, when he caused the fountains of the watery deep to be strong, when he set for the sea his decree that the waters themselves should not pass beyond his order, when he decreed the foundations of the earth, then I came to be beside him as a master worker, and I came to be the one he was specially fond of day by day, I being glad before him all the time, being glad at the productive land of his earth, and the things I was fond of were with the sons of men. ”
Isikustatud tarkus jätkab: „Kui tema [Jehoova] valmistas taevad, olin mina seal, siis kui ta joonestas sõõri sügavuse pinnale, kui ta kinnitas pilved ülal, tegi võimsaks sügavuse allikad, kui ta merele pani piiri, et veed ei astuks üle tema käsust, kui ta kinnitas maa alused, siis olin mina tema kõrval kui lemmiklaps [„ meistertööline ”, UM], olin päevast päeva temale rõõmuks, mängisin igal ajal tema ees, mängisin tema maailma maa peal ja tundsin rõõmu inimlastest! ”
