Original text and translations

English text

The Lord created me first of all,
 the first of his works, long ago.

I was born before the oceans,
 when there were no springs of water.
I was born before the mountains,
 before the hills were set in place,
I was born before God made the earth
 or even the first handful of soil.

I was made in the very beginning,
 at the first, before the world began.
