"when I stationed a cloud as its garment and wrapped it in a mist as if swaddling an infant?"
— Job 38:9, Catholic Public Domain Version
“When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,”
“When I made clouds the garment thereof, And thick darkness a swaddling-band for it, ”
“when I made clouds its garment, and wrapped it in thick darkness,”
“when I made the storm clouds its garment, and thick darkness its swaddling band,”
“When I made a cloud the garment thereof, and wrapped it in a mist as in swaddling bands?”
“When I made the cloud its robe, and put thick clouds as bands round it,”
“When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,”
Upon what have its bases been grounded, and who set forth its cornerstone,
when the morning stars praised me together, and all the sons of God made a joyful noise?
Who enclosed the sea with doors, when it broke forth as if issuing from the womb,
when I stationed a cloud as its garment and wrapped it in a mist as if swaddling an infant?
I encircled it with my limits, and I positioned its bars and doors.
And I said: “This far you will approach, and you will proceed no further, and here you will break your swelling waves.”
Did you, after your birth, command the birth of the sun and show the sunrise its place?
