   As for translations....  Dorothy was quite pleased with the   
   German translation of her short-short "Things Come in Threes"   
   (published in the first volume of MZB's "Sword and Sorceress"   
   series).  At the end, as Cynthia is looking down at the chaos of   
   the three demons going through the Roman army, the translation   
   rendered "chaos" as "tohuabohu".  That's one of the very rare   
   German borrowing from Hebrew and it's the "without form and   
   void" from the Bible.  A fitting match to the Greek concept of   
   "chaos".
