The likeness as the appearance of fire, which the speaker sees in the sixth year as the elders of Judah sit before him

제 육년 유월 오일에 유다 장로들이 앞에 앉았을 때 말하는 이가 본 불 같은 형상

Ezekiel 8:1–4: the speaker (“I”) says, “In the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, the Lord GOD’s hand fell on me there. Then I saw, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of fire—from the appearance of his waist and downward, fire, and from his waist and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as it were glowing metal. He stretched out the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and the sky, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the gate of the inner court that looks toward the north, where there was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provokes to jealousy. Behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the appearance that I saw in the plain.” Neither edition names who “he” is at 8:3. The Korean Revised Version reads 그 허리 (literally that waist, a word that names no one) at 8:2, where WEB reads “his waist”, and 이상 (vision) at 8:4, where WEB reads “the appearance”.
