And in the midst of the seven candlesticks [one] like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.	His head and [his] hairs [were] white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes [were] as a flame of fire;	And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
