Then Solomon said, “The Lord has said that he would dwell in a dark cloud;
Thick clouds veil him, so he does not see us as he goes about in the vaulted heavens.’

No one is to come with you or be seen anywhere on the mountain; not even the flocks and herds may graze in front of the mountain.”
who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen.
