Ezekiel 1:25-28
Legacy Standard Bible
25 And there came a sound from above the (A)expanse that was over their heads; whenever they stood still, they dropped their wings.
26 Now (B)above the expanse that was over their heads there was something in the (C)likeness of a throne, like (D)sapphire stone in appearance; and upon the likeness of the throne, high up, was the likeness of one with the appearance of a (E)man. 27 Then I saw from the appearance of His loins and upward something (F)like the gleam of [a]glowing metal with the appearance of fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw something with the appearance of fire; and there was a radiance all around Him. 28 As the appearance of the (G)rainbow [b]in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the radiance all around. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the (H)glory of Yahweh. And I saw this, and I (I)fell on my face and heard a sound of a voice speaking.

Ezekiel 1:25-28
American Standard Version
25 And there was a voice above the firmament that was over their heads: when they stood, they let down their wings.
26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above. 27 And I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about [a]him. 28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Jehovah. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
