²⁶Now ^aabove the expanse that was over their heads there was something ^bresembling a throne, like ¹^clapis lazuli in appearance; and on that which resembled a throne, high up, was a figure with the appearance of a ^dman.

²⁷Then I ¹noticed from the appearance of His loins and upward something ^alike ²glowing metal that looked like fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw something like fire; and there was a radiance around Him.

²⁸As the appearance of the ^arainbow ¹in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the surrounding radiance. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the ^bglory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I ^cfell on my face and heard a voice speaking.
