Bow down your heavens, O Jehovah, and come down. Touch the mountains that they may smoke.

O that you would split open the heavens and come down! The mountains would quake at your presence.

Solomon prayed: Jehovah, you have placed the sun in the sky, yet you have chosen to live in clouds and darkness.

Clouds, gloom and darkness are all around Him. Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of his throne.

You lay the beams of your upper chambers in the waters. You make the clouds your chariot. You walk upon the wings of the wind.

Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

It was about the sixth hour. Darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
