I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, before the earth existed.

while as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the beginning of the dust of the world.

The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

The beginning of strife is like breaching a dam, therefore stop contention before quarreling breaks out.

An inheritance quickly gained at the beginning, won't be blessed in the end.
