And I turned around, so as to see the voice which was speaking with me. And having turned around, I saw seven golden lampstands.

But his head and hair were bright, like white wool, or like snow; and his eyes were like a flame of fire;

15

and his feet resembled shining brass, just as in a burning furnace; and his voice was like the voice of many waters.
