Personification is a literary tool used when something non-human is humanized. In Proverbs 8, wisdom is personified and verbally makes a plea to be respected, stating that it had been around since the creation of what?

While wisdom might argue it's been around since the other three, in Proverbs 8 it specifically states that it had been around since the creation of the world, before the foundations were laid and the heavens were put in place. Wisdom, it insinuates, guided the creation of the world.
