24. I heard the sound of their wings, like the roaring sound of the sea, as they moved. It was like the voice of God Almighty, a roaring sound like a noisy army. When the living creatures stopped, they lowered their wings.
25. A voice came from above the dome over the heads of the living creatures. When the living creatures stopped, they lowered their wings.
26. Now above the dome there was something that looked like a throne. It looked like a sapphire gem. And on the throne was a shape like a human.
27. Then I noticed that from the waist up the shape looked like glowing metal with fire inside. From the waist down it looked like fire, and a bright light was all around.
28. The surrounding glow looked like the rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day. It seemed to look like the glory of the Lord. So when I saw it, I bowed facedown on the ground and heard a voice speaking.
