air of stars and tremor of plant
a thicket of anemones raises
with a dark moan an entire year.

Lisbon Bible, Lisbon Portugal, 1482. 

 בראשית ברא אלוהים את השמיים ואת הארץ והארץ היתה תהו ובהו וחשך על–פני תהום ורוח אלוהים מרחפת על–פני המים
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form and void ; and darkness was on the face of the deep.  And a wind from God moved over the surface of the waters.
