是我用云彩当海的衣服，用幽暗当包裹它的布，

是我用云彩当海的衣服，用幽暗当包裹它的布，

是我用云彩当海的衣服，用幽暗当包裹它的布，

是我为大海披上云彩，为它裹上厚厚的幽暗。

是我以云彩当作海的衣服，以幽暗当作包裹海的布；

是我用雲彩當海的衣服，用幽暗當包裹它的布，

是我用雲彩當海的衣服，用幽暗當包裹它的布，

是我用雲彩當海的衣服，用幽暗當包裹它的布，

是我為大海披上雲彩，為它裹上厚厚的幽暗。

是我以雲彩當作海的衣服，以幽暗當作包裹海的布；

那時我以雲彩當海的服裝，以暗霧當包裹的布；

我以雲為其衣、以幽暗為襁褓、

其蔽以密雲、遮以靉靆、

以雲為其衣、裹以昏黑、如以襁褓裹嬰、

when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness,

I put clouds over it as if they were its clothes. I wrapped it in thick darkness.

when I made clouds its garment and thick darkness its swaddling band,

and as I clothed it with clouds and wrapped it in thick darkness?

when I made the clouds its garment and total darkness its blanket,

When I made a cloud its garment, And thick darkness its swaddling bands,

When I made the clouds its garment, And thick darkness its swaddling band;

When I made clouds the garment thereof, And thick darkness a swaddling- band for it,

when I made the clouds its garment and thick darkness its blanket,

When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

when I made the storm clouds its garment, and thick darkness its swaddling band,

when I made clouds its garment, and wrapped it in thick darkness,

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. (niv)
