Ezekiel 1:3 BBE

¹  Now it came about in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, while I was by the river Chebar among those who had been made prisoners, that the heavens were made open and I saw visions of God.

²  On the fifth day of the month, in the fifth year after King Jehoiachin had been made a prisoner,

³  The word of the Lord came to me, Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldaeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was on me there.

⁴  And, looking, I saw a storm-wind coming out of the north, a great cloud with flames of fire coming after one another, and a bright light shining round about it and in the heart of it was something coloured like electrum.

⁵  And in the heart of it were the forms of four living beings. And this was what they were like; they had the form of a man.
