As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.

You were in `Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: odem, pitdah, yahalom, tarshish, shoham, yashefay, sappir, nofek, and bareket. Gold work of timbrels and of pipes was in you. In the day that you were created they were prepared.
I saw a mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.
