At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.
Right in the middle of the day, your majesty, I saw this light from heaven that was brighter than the sun itself, it surrounded me and everyone traveling with me.
Sometimes God shows up so clearly that you can't miss it, even in broad daylight.
