11He maketh darkness His secret place, Round about Him His tabernacle, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

12From the brightness over-against Him His thick clouds have passed on, Hail and coals of fire.

13And thunder in the heavens doth Jehovah, And the Most High giveth forth His voice, Hail and coals of fire.

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.

the voice of the Most High resounded.

amid the hail and burning coals.

and the Most High uttered his voice

with hail and coals of fire.

He made darkness his secret place;

His pavilion round about him

Were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

And the Highest gave his voice;

Hail stones and coals of fire.
