Ezekiel 1:25-28
New American Standard Bible
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.
