“As I looked,
A stormy wind
Came out
Of the north.
A great cloud,
With brightness,
Was around it.
Fire
Was flashing forth
Continually.
In the middle of it
Was something
Like gleaming amber.”
Ezekiel continued in the first person singular explaining what his vision looked like. He said that this vision was like a great cloud with a stormy wind that came from the north. Generally powerful but bad things came from the north. This cloud, however, was very bright and seemed to have fire flashes continually around it. In the middle of this cloud there was something like a glowing amber color. Thus this vision of Ezekiel was very stormy, colorful, and powerful.
