He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 26 of Job. Job responds ironically and then offers a majestic description of God’s creative power. He speaks of the realms of the dead, clouds, horizon, and forces of the sea. The passage ends by acknowledging that all this represents only a portion of God’s works. God’s greatness is affirmed without being used to silence the mystery.

Er verhüllt seinen Stuhl und breitet seine Wolken davor.
Él restriñe la faz de su trono, Y sobre él extiende su nube.
Cubre el rostro de su trono y extiende sobre él su nube.
Il couvre la face de son trône, Il répand sur lui sa nuée.
Egli tavola la superficie del suo trono, Egli spande la sua nuvola sopra esso.
Encobre a face do seu trono, e sobre ele estende a sua nuvem.
他遮蔽寶座的正面, 把他的雲彩鋪在其上。
