Rashi, on Prov 8:31

“Playing in the world: and my delights were to be with the children of men.”

“playing in the habitable world of His earth All the generations of the wicked that were from Adam to Noah and from Noah to Abraham, I was laughing at them. and [having] my delights I waited until the generation of the desert came and accepted me.”
