Ezekiel 1:25-27
English Standard Version
25 And there came a voice from above (A)the expanse over their heads. When they stood still, they let down their wings.
26 And above the expanse over their heads there was (B)the likeness of a throne, (C)in appearance (D)like sapphire;[a] and seated above the likeness of a throne was (E)a likeness with a human appearance. 27 And (F)upward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were (G)gleaming metal, like the appearance of fire enclosed all around. And downward from what had the appearance of his waist I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and (H)there was brightness around him.[b]
