Translation of Genesis 1:2

The Earth was a desert and empty, and (it was) darkness over (the) surface of (the) deep. Spirit (=wind) of God (was) hovering over the surface of the water.

Comments

"The deep" apparently means the Ocean.

It is supposed by some people, that the darkness was caused by dark clouds.

Analyzing of information presented on this page is complete (even with spaces hypothesis). That is, all variants of translation were considered carefully. No warranty however, that nothing is missing.
