The Glory of the Lord

⁴ As I looked, behold, ^(A)a stormy wind came ^(B)out of the north, and a great cloud, with ^(C)brightness around it, and fire flashing forth continually, and in the midst of the fire, ^(D)as it were gleaming metal.^{[a] 5} And from the midst of it came the likeness of ^(E)four living creatures. ^(F)And this was their appearance: they had a human likeness, ^6 (G)but each had four faces, and each of them had four wings.

²⁸ Like the appearance of ^(A)the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around.

Such was the appearance of the likeness of ^(B)the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, ^(C)I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking.
