4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was beside the great river, the Tigris. 5 I looked up and saw a man clothed in linen; around his waist was a belt made of gold from Ufaz. 6 His body resembled yellow jasper, and his face had an appearance like lightning. His eyes were like blazing torches; his arms and feet had the gleam of polished bronze. His voice thundered forth like the sound of a large crowd. 7 Only I, Daniel, saw the vision; the men who were with me did not see it. On the contrary, they were overcome with fright and ran away to hide.

1 And after some days my son Methuselah took a wife for his son Lamech, and she became pregnant by him and bore a son. 2 said unto him: 'Behold, here am I, my son, wherefore hast thou come to me?' 3 And his body was white as snow and red as the blooming of a rose, and the hair of his head †and his long locks were white as wool, and his eyes beautiful†. And when he opened his eyes, he lighted up the whole house like the sun, and the whole house was very bright. 4 And thereupon he arose in the hands of the midwife, opened his mouth, and †conversed with† the Lord of righteousness.
