地是空虚混沌，渊面黑暗；神的灵运行在水面上。

地是空虚混沌，深渊上面一片黑暗；上帝的灵运行在水面上。

Now the earth was formless and empty , darkness was over the surface of the deep , and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters .

The earth didn’t have any shape . And it was empty . There was darkness over the surface of the waves . At that time , the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters .

Now the earth was formless and empty , darkness covered the surface of the watery depths , and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters .

And the earth was waste and void ; and darkness was upon the face of the deep : and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters .

先知说：“我观看地，不料，地是空虚混沌；我观看天，天也无光。

你发出你的灵，它们便受造；你使地面更换为新。

创造诸天的耶和华，制造成全大地的神，他创造坚定大地，并非使地荒凉，是要给人居住。他如此说：“我是耶和华，再没有别神。

诸天藉耶和华的命而造；万象藉他口中的气而成。

神将北极铺在空中，将大地悬在虚空；

谁曾用手心量诸水，用手虎口量苍天，用升斗盛大地的尘土，用秤称山岭，用天平平冈陵呢？谁曾测度耶和华的心，或作他的谋士指教他呢？他与谁商议，谁教导他，谁将公平的路指示他，又将知识教训他，将通达的道指教他呢？

看哪，这不过是神工作的些微；我们所听于他的是何等细微的声音！他大能的雷声谁能明透呢？”

尼尼微现在空虚荒凉，人心消化，双膝相碰，腰都疼痛，脸都变色。
