2 Esdras 13:2-4
Revised Standard Version
2 and behold, a wind arose from the sea and stirred up all its waves. 3 And I looked, and behold, this wind made something like the figure of a man come up out of the heart of the sea. And I looked, and behold,[a] that man flew[b] with the clouds of heaven; and wherever he turned his face to look, everything under his gaze trembled, 4 and whenever his voice issued from his mouth, all who heard his voice melted as wax melts[c] when it feels the fire.
