4 Je regardai, et voici, il vint du septentrion un vent impétueux, une grosse nuée, et une gerbe de feu, qui répandait de tous côtés une lumière éclatante, au centre de laquelle brillait comme de l’airain poli, sortant du milieu du feu.

5 Au centre encore, apparaissaient quatre animaux, dont l’aspect avait une ressemblance humaine.
