← Ezekiel 1:24	Ezekiel 1:25 (KJV)	Ezekiel 1:26 →
And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.	And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.	And above the firmament that [was] over their heads [was] the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne [was] the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
