I sawanotherstrongangelcoming downout of heaven,clothedwith a cloud;and the rainbowwas upon his head,and his facewas likethe sun,and his feetlikepillarsof fire;
He laysthe beamsof His upperchambersin the waters;He makesthe cloudsHis chariot;He walksupon the wingsof the wind;
Cloudsand thickdarknesssurroundHim; Righteousnessand justiceare the foundationof His throne.
It cameabout as Aaronspoketo the wholecongregationof the sonsof Israel,that they lookedtowardthe wilderness,and behold,the gloryof the LORDappearedin the cloud.
"His legsare pillarsof alabasterSeton pedestalsof puregold;His appearanceis like LebanonChoiceas the cedars.
The oracleconcerning Egypt.Behold,the LORDis ridingon a swiftcloudand is about to cometo Egypt;The idolsof Egyptwill trembleat His presence,And the heartof the Egyptianswill meltwithinthem.
"For thisis like the daysof Noahto Me, WhenI sworethat the watersof NoahWould not floodthe earthagain;SoI have swornthat I will not be angrywith you Norwill I rebukeyou.
You have coveredYourself with a cloudSothat noprayercan passthrough.
As the appearanceof the rainbowin the cloudson a rainyday,so[was] the appearanceof the surroundingradiance.Such[was] the appearanceof the likenessof the gloryof the LORD.And when I saw[it], I fellon my faceand hearda voicespeaking.
His bodyalso [was] like beryl,his facehad the appearanceof lightning,his eyeswere like flamingtorches,his armsand feetlike the gleamof polishedbronze,and the soundof his wordslike the soundof a tumult.
"I keptlookingin the nightvisions,And behold,with the cloudsof heavenOne like a Sonof Manwas coming,And He cameup to the Ancientof DaysAnd was presentedbeforeHim.
The LORDsaidto Moses:"Tellyour brotherAaronthat he shall not enterat anytimeinto the holyplace insidethe veil,beforethe mercyseatwhichis on the ark,orhe will die;for I will appearin the cloudoverthe mercyseat.
And He was transfiguredbeforethem; and His faceshonelikethe sun,and His garmentsbecameas whiteas light.
"Thenthey will seeTHE SONOF MANCOMINGIN A CLOUDwith powerand greatglory.
at midday,O King,I sawon the waya lightfrom heaven,brighterthanthe sun,shining all aroundme and thosewho were journeyingwith me.
BEHOLD,HE IS COMINGWITH THE CLOUDS,and everyeyewill seeHim, eventhose whopiercedHim; and allthe tribesof the earthwill mournoverHim. Soit is to be. Amen.
Afterthese thingsI sawanotherangelcoming downfrom heaven,havinggreatauthority,and the earthwas illuminedwith his glory.
Thena strongangeltookup a stonelikea greatmillstoneand threwit into the sea,saying,"Sowill Babylon,the greatcity,be throwndown with violence,and will not be foundany longer.
ThenI sawan angelcoming downfrom heaven,holdingthe keyof the abyssand a greatchainin his hand.
And He who was sitting[was] likea jasperstoneand a sardiusin appearance;and [there was] a rainbowaroundthe throne,likean emeraldin appearance.
And I sawa strongangelproclaimingwith a loudvoice,"Whois worthyto openthe bookand to breakits seals?"
ThenI looked,and I heardan eagleflyingin midheaven,sayingwith a loudvoice,"Woe,woe,woeto thosewho dwellon the earth,becauseof the remainingblastsof the trumpetof the threeangelswho are aboutto sound!"
