1. Then the man led me to the outer east gateway,
2. and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. It sounded like the roar of rushing water, and its brightness made the earth shine.
3. The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when the Lord came to destroy the city and also like the vision I had seen by the Kebar River. I bowed facedown on the ground.
4. The glory of the Lord came into the Temple area through the east gateway.
5. Then the Spirit picked me up and brought me into the inner courtyard. There I saw the Lord’s glory filling the Temple.
6. As the man stood at my side, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the Temple.
