²⁵ And a voice came from above the ^(A)expanse that was over their heads; whenever they stood still, they let down their wings.

²⁶ Now ^(B)above the expanse that was over their heads there was something ^(C)resembling a throne, like ^[a](D)lapis lazuli in appearance; and on that which resembled a throne, high up, was a figure with the appearance of a ^(E)man. ²⁷ Then I ^[b]noticed from the appearance of His waist and upward something ^(F)like gleaming ^[c]metal that looked like fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw something like fire; and there was a radiance around Him. ²⁸ Like the appearance of the ^(G)rainbow ^[d]in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the surrounding radiance. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the ^(H)glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I ^(I)fell on my face and heard a voice speaking.
