And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.

Verse 13 is found in chapter 1 of Revelation. When John turns toward the voice, he sees seven golden lampstands and, among them, one like the Son of Man. The image combines priestly, royal, and heavenly features: the garment, white hair, eyes like a flame of fire, and voice like the sound of many waters communicate dignity, knowledge, and authority. The seven stars in his right hand and the sword coming from his mouth anticipate the interpretation that follows. Christ does not appear distant from his churches, but walking among them and holding them in his hand.

und mitten unter die sieben Leuchtern einen, der war eines Menschen Sohne gleich, der war angetan mit einem langen Gewand und begürtet um die Brust mit einem goldenen Gürtel.
Y en medio de los siete candeleros, uno semejante al Hijo del hombre, vestido de una ropa que llegaba hasta los pies, y ceñido por los pechos con una cinta de oro.
En medio de los candelabros había uno semejante al Hijo del Hombre, vestido con una túnica que llegaba hasta los pies y ceñido al pecho con una banda de oro.
et, au milieu des sept chandeliers, quelqu'un qui ressemblait à un fils d'homme, vêtu d'une longue robe, et ayant une ceinture d'or sur la poitrine.
E in mezzo di que’ sette candellieri, uno, simigliante ad un figliuol d’uomo, vestito d’una vesta lunga fino a’ piedi, e cinto d’una cintura d’oro all’altezza del seno.
E no meio dos sete castiçais um semelhante ao Filho do homem, vestido até aos pés de uma roupa comprida, e cingido pelos peitos com um cinto de ouro.
在燈臺中間有一位好像人子的,身穿垂到腳的長袍,胸間束著金帶。
