He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud on it.
Then spoke Shlomo, the LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn't see. He walks on the vault of the sky.'
He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
The people stayed at a distance, and Moshe drew near to the thick darkness where God was.
No one shall come up with you; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mountain; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain.*
who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amein.
