4 And I looked, and behold, a windstorm came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire flashing itself, and a brightness to it all around, and out of its midst, like the color of polished bronze out of the middle of the fire.

5 Also out of its midst [came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] how they looked; they had the likeness of a man.
