ESVEnglish Standard Version

He rode on a cherub and flew;

he came swiftly on the wings of the wind.

He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him,

thick clouds dark with water.

Out of the brightness before him

hailstones and coals of fire broke through his clouds.

The Lord also thundered in the heavens,

and the Most High uttered his voice,

hailstones and coals of fire.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

He mounted the cherubim and flew;

he soared on the wings of the wind.

He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him—

the dark rain clouds of the sky.

Out of the brightness of his presence clouds advanced,

with hailstones and bolts of lightning.

The Lord thundered from heaven;

the voice of the Most High resounded.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

He rode on a cherub and flew,

soaring on the wings of the wind.

He made darkness his hiding place,

dark storm clouds his canopy around him.

From the radiance of his presence,

his clouds swept onward with hail and blazing coals.

The Lord thundered from heaven;

the Most High made his voice heard.

NLTNew Living Translation

Mounted on a mighty angelic being, he flew,

soaring on the wings of the wind.

He shrouded himself in darkness,

veiling his approach with dark rain clouds.

Thick clouds shielded the brightness around him

and rained down hail and burning coals.

The Lord thundered from heaven;

the voice of the Most High resounded

amid the hail and burning coals.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And he mounted a cherub and flew,

and he swooped down on wings of wind.

He made darkness his hiding place;

all about him his covering

was a darkness of waters, thick clouds.

From the brightness before him

his clouds passed over

with hail and coals of fire.

And Yahweh thundered from the heavens,

and the Most High uttered his voice

with hail and coals of fire.

KJV 1900King James Version

And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly:

Yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.

He made darkness his secret place;

His pavilion round about him

Were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed,

Hail stones and coals of fire.

The Lord also thundered in the heavens,

And the Highest gave his voice;

Hail stones and coals of fire.
