20 Eu faço andar pelo caminho da justiça, no meio das veredas do juízo;
21 Para eu dar herança aos que me amam, e encher seus tesouros.
22 O SENHOR me adquiriu no princípio de seu caminho; desde antes de suas obras antigas.

24 Quando ainda não havia abismos, eu fui gerada; quando ainda não havia fontes providas de muitas águas.
