Septuagint

How, through translation

beyond what law and prophets

Dare say in Hebrew.

Leave some to dangle

So the selective process 

Saves lasting theories.

To see through scripture,

as if autumn had fallen

before it began.

 

Translation
איך, דרך תרגום מעבר למה

 שחוק ונביאים מעזים אומר בעברית.

 עזוב כמה לתלות לכן התהליך

 הבררני חוסך תאוריות בר קימא.

 לראות דרך כתב קודש,

 כאילו סתו נפל לפני זה התחיל.
