| 2 | before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is darkened, and the clouds return after the rain, | before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain, | While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain: | before the sun and the light, the moon and the stars are darkened, and clouds return after the rain; | before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars grow dark, and the clouds return after the rain; |
| 3 | on the day the keepers of the house tremble and the strong men stoop, when those grinding cease because they are few and those watching through windows see dimly, | in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those who look through the windows are dimmed, | In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened, | on the day that the watchmen of the house tremble, and strong men are bent over, the grinders stop working because they are few, and those who look through windows grow dim; | when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men stoop, when the grinders cease because they are few, and those looking through the windows grow dim; |
| 4 | when the doors to the street are shut and the sound of the mill |
