Ezekiel 1:22-28

22Now 1overH5921 the headsH7218 of the livingH2421 2beingsH2421 there was something likeH1823 an expanseH7549, like the awesomeH3372 gleamH5869 of crystalH7140, spreadH5186 outH5186 overH5921H4605 their headsH7218. 23UnderH8478 the expanseH7549 their wingsH3671 were stretched out straightH3477, oneH802 towardH413 the otherH269; eachH376 oneH376 also had 3twoH8147 wings coveringH3680 its bodyH1472 on the oneH2008 sideH2008 and on the otherH2008. 24And I also heardH8085 the soundH6963 of their wingsH3671, like the 4soundH6963 of abundantH7227 watersH4325 as they wentH1980, like the 5voiceH6963 of 6the AlmightyH7706, a soundH6963 of a crowdH1999 like the 7soundH6963 of an armyH4264 campH4264; whenever they stoppedH5975, they letH7503 downH7503 their wingsH3671. 25And a voiceH6963 cameH1961 from aboveH5921 the 8expanseH7549 that was overH5921 their headsH7218; whenever they stoodH5975 stillH5975, they letH7503 downH7503 their wingsH3671.

26Now 9aboveH4480H4605 the expanseH7549 that was overH5921 their headsH7218 there was somethingH1823 10resemblingH1823 a throneH3678, like 1112lapisH68H5601 lazuliH68H5601 in appearanceH4758; and on that whichH1823 resembledH1823 a throneH3678, highH4480H4605 up, was a figureH1823 with the appearanceH4758 of a 13manH120. 27Then I 14noticedH7200 from the appearanceH4758 of His waistH4975 and upwardH4605 something 15like gleamingH5869 16metalH2830 that lookedH4758 like fireH784 allH5439 aroundH5439 withinH1004 it, and from the appearanceH4758 of His waistH4975 and downwardH4295 I sawH7200 somethingH4758 like fireH784; and there was a radianceH5051 aroundH5439 Him. 28Like the appearanceH4758 of the 17rainbowH7198 18in the cloudsH6051 on a rainyH1653 dayH3117, soH3651 was the appearanceH4758 of the surroundingH5439 radianceH5051. SuchH1931 was the appearanceH4758 of the likenessH1823 of the 19gloryH3519 of the LordH3068. And when I sawH7200 it, I 20fellH5307 on my faceH6440 and heardH8085 a voiceH6963 speakingH1696.
