Ezekiel 1:22-28

22Now over the heads of the living creatures there was something like an expanse, shining like the color of ice, stretched forth over their heads.

23Under the expanse, their wings were stretched out straight, one toward the other. Each had another pair covering its body.

24When they moved, I could hear the sound of their wings like the sound of rushing waters, like the voice of Shaddai, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army. Whenever they stood still, they let down their wings.

25There came a voice from above the expanse over their heads. Whenever they stood still, they let down their wings.

26Above the expanse over their heads was something like a throne, resembling a sapphire stone. Above the shape of the throne was a figure of human appearance.

27From what appeared as his waist upward, I saw a glowing metal, looking like a fire encased in a frame. From what was like his waist down, I saw the appearance of fire radiating around him.

28Like the appearance of the rainbow in the cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the radiance. It was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Adonai. I saw it, fell upon my face, and heard the voice of the One who was speaking.
