3
"I came forth from the mouth of the Most High, and covered the earth like a mist.
4
I dwelt in the highest heavens, and my throne was in a pillar of cloud.
5
Alone I compassed the vault of heaven and traversed the depths of the abyss.
6
Over waves of the sea, over all the earth, and over every people and nation I have held sway.
7
Among all these I sought a resting place; in whose territory should I abide?
