¹²And I turned around, so as to see the voice which was speaking with me. And having turned around, I saw seven golden lampstands. ¹³And in the midst of the seven golden lampstands was one resembling the Son of man, clothed to the feet with a vestment, and wrapped to the breast with a wide belt of gold. ¹⁴But his head and hair were bright, like white wool, or like snow; and his eyes were like a flame of fire; ¹⁵and his feet resembled shining brass, just as in a burning furnace; and his voice was like the voice of many waters.

⁷And the Lord said to Samuel: “You should not look with favor on his face, nor on the height of his stature. For I have rejected him. Neither do I judge by the appearance of a man. For man sees those things that are apparent, but the Lord beholds the heart.”

²⁷And God created man to his own image; to the image of God he created him; male and female, he created them.

¹¹And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And he who was sitting upon it was called Faithful and True. And with justice does he judge and fight. ¹²And his eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, having a name written, which no one knows except himself. ¹³And he was clothed with a vestment sprinkled with blood. And his name is called: THE WORD OF GOD. ¹⁴And the armies that are in heaven were following him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. ¹⁵And from his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword, so that with it he may strike the nations. And he shall rule them with an iron rod. And he treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. ¹⁶And he has on his garment and on his thigh written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

³⁰Charm is false, and beauty is vain. The woman who fears the Lord, the same shall be praised.

¹⁴I will confess to you, for you have been magnified terribly. Your works are miraculous, as my soul knows exceedingly well.

¹⁴But his head and hair were bright, like white wool, or like snow; and his eyes were like a flame of fire;

²⁴God is Spirit. And so, those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.”

³For you, there should be no unnecessary adornment of the hair, or surrounding with gold, or the wearing of ornate clothing. ⁴Instead, you should be a hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptibility of a quiet and meek spirit, rich in the sight of God.

⁹I watched until thrones were set up, and the Ancient of days sat down. His garment was radiant like snow, and the hair of his head like clean wool; his throne was flames of fire, its wheels had been set on fire.

²⁶And above the firmament, which was suspended over their heads, there was the likeness of a throne, with the appearance of the sapphire stone. And over the likeness of the throne, there was a likeness with the appearance of a man above it. ²⁷And I saw something with the appearance of amber, with the likeness of fire within it and all around it. And from his waist and upward, and from his waist downward, I saw something with the appearance of fire shining all around. ²⁸There was the appearance of the rainbow, as when it is in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the splendor on every side.

²⁸So also, you certainly appear to men outwardly to be just. But inwardly you are filled with hypocrisy and iniquity.
