KJV ORIGINAL
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
It looked like a rainbow after a storm — that's how bright and amazing the glory surrounding everything was. This was what God's presence actually looked like. When I saw it, I literally couldn't stay standing and just hit the ground, and then I heard someone speaking.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When you actually encounter God's presence, your only response is to fall down in awe.
