And all the higher stars of cloudland Fixed in its rigidity. And every star of them compasseth its circuit in six and thirty thousand years, From the greatness of its altitude;
And from the might of these stars Is drawn the strength of all creatures below, Each after its kind, According to the will of the Creator who hath appointed them,
מִי יַגִּיעַ לְרוֹמְמוּתֶךָ בְּהַקִּיפְךָ עַל גַּלְגַּל שַׁבְּתַי גַּלְגַּל שְׁמִינִי בִּמְסִבָּתוֹ.
Who shall attain to Thy exaltation? For Thou hast encompassed the sphere of Saturn with an eighth sphere of encompassment,
וְהוּא סוֹבֵל שְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה מַזָּלוֹת עַל קַו חֵשֶׁב אֲפֻדָּתוֹ.
And it is laden with the twelve constellations On the line of the belt of its ephod,
וְכָל כּוֹכְבֵי שַׁחַק הָעֶלְיוֹנִים יְצוּקִים בִּיצוּקָתוֹ. וְכָל כּוֹכָב מֵהֶם יַקִּיף הַגַּלְגַּל בְּשִׁשָּׁה וּשְׁלֹשִׁים אֶלֶף שָׁנִים מֵרֹב גַּבְהוּתוֹ.
And all the higher stars of cloudland Fixed in its rigidity. And every star of them compasseth its circuit in six and thirty thousand years, From the greatness of its altitude;
וְגוּף כָּל כּוֹכָב מֵהֶם מֵאָה וְשֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים כְּגוּף הָאָרֶץ וְזֹאת תַּכְלִית גְּדֻלָּתוֹ:
And the body of each is a hundred and seven times that of the earth, And this is the limit of its greatness.
וּמִכֹּחַ הַמַּזָּלוֹת הָהֵם. נֶאֱצַל כֹּחַ כָּל בְּרוּאֵי מַטָּה לְמִינֵיהֶם. בִּרְצוֹן בּוֹרְאָם וּמַפְקִידָם עֲלֵיהֶם:
And from the might of these stars Is drawn the strength of all creatures below, Each after its kind, According to the will of the Creator who hath appointed them,
וְכָל אֶחָד מֵהֶם עַל מַתְכֻּנְתּוֹ בָּרְאוֹ. וּבְשֵׁם קְרָאוֹ. אִישׁ אִישׁ עַל עֲבוֹדָתוֹ וְעַל מַשָּׂאוֹ:
And set every one of them in its fit station, And given it its name, "Each man to his service and his station."
