3 the word of Jehovah came to Ezekiel* son of Buʹzi the priest by the river Cheʹbar in the land of the Chal·deʹans.+ There the hand of Jehovah came upon him.+

4 As I was looking, I saw a tempestuous wind+ coming from the north, and there was a huge cloud and flashing fire*+ surrounded by a bright light, and from the midst of the fire was something that looked like electrum.*+

23 So I got up and went to the valley plain, and look! the glory of Jehovah was there,+ like the glory that I saw by the river Cheʹbar,+ and I fell facedown.
