NETBible

He conceals¹ the face of the full moon,² shrouding it with his clouds.

NET Notes

¹tn The verb means “to hold; to seize,” here in the sense of shutting up, enshrouding, or concealing.

²tc The MT has כִסֵּה (khisseh), which is a problematic vocalization. Most certainly כֵּסֶה (keseh), alternative for כֶּסֶא (kese’, “full moon”) is intended here. The MT is close to the form of “throne,” which would be כִּסֵּא (kisse’, cf. NLT “he shrouds his throne with his clouds”). But here God is covering the face of the moon by hiding it behind clouds.
