12 He made darkness his canopy around him—

the dark rain clouds of the sky.

12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him,

Dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.

12 He shrouded himself in darkness,

veiling his approach with dense rain clouds.

12 He made darkness canopies around Him,

Dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

12 He made darkness his shelter,

surrounded by fog and clouds.

12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him,

Gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

12 And he made darkness round about him a tent, Gatherings of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

12 He surrounded himself with darkness. 

He made the dark rain clouds his covering. 

12 He made darkness a canopy around Him,

a gathering of water and thick clouds.

12 He made darkness around him a canopy,

thick clouds, a gathering of water.

12 He put darkness as a canopy all around him,

a collection of thick rain clouds.

12 He covered himself with darkness.

The dark rain clouds of the sky were like a tent around him.

12 “And He made darkness canopies around Him,

A mass of waters, thick clouds of the sky.
