2 In the fifth day of the month (which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin’s captivity)
3 The word of the Lord came unto Ezekiel the Priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar, where the [a]hand of the Lord was upon him.
4 And I looked, and behold, a [b]whirlwind came out of the North, a great cloud and a fire wrapped about it, and a brightness was about it, and in the midst thereof, to wit, in the midst of the fire came out as the likeness of [c]amber.
