Then turning toward the north,

The wind continues 1:6 Lit turningswirling along;

And on its circular courses the wind returns.

6Blowing toward the south,

Then turning toward the north,

The wind continues swirling along;

And on its circular courses the wind returns.

6The wind blows toward the south,

Then circles toward the north;

The wind circles and swirls endlessly,

And on its circular course the wind returns. [John 3:8]

then turns northward;

round and round it swirls,

ever returning on its course.

Then it turns to the north.

Around and around it goes.

It always returns to where it started.
