فَنَظَرَهَا يَهُوذَا وَحَسِبَهَا زَانِيَةً، لأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ قَدْ غَطَّتْ وَجْهَهَا.When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.Genesis 38:15, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
ثُمَّ غَطَّتِ السَّحَابَةُ خَيْمَةَ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَمَلأَ بَهَاءُ الرَّبِّ الْمَسْكَنَ.Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.Exodus 40:34, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
حِينَئِذٍ يَبْتَدِئُونَ يَقُولُونَ لِلْجِبَالِ: اسْقُطِي عَلَيْنَا! وَلِلآكَامِ: غَطِّينَا!Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.Luke 23:30, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
