Ezekiel 1:25-28
Lexham English Bible
25 And there was[a] a sound from above the expanse that was above their heads, and when they stood[b] they lowered their wings. 26 And from above the expanse that was above their heads there was the likeness of a throne, looking like a sapphire,[c] and above the likeness of the throne was a likeness similar to[d] the appearance of a human on it, but above it.[e] 27 And I saw something like the outward appearance of amber, something like the appearance of fire, with a covering around it, from the likeness of his loins and upward.[f] And from the likeness of his loins and downward[g] I saw something like the appearance of fire, and it was radiant all around.[h] 28 Like the appearance[i] of a bow that is in the cloud on a rainy day,[j] such was the radiance[k] around it; thus was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Yahweh. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard a voice speaking.
