وَكَانَ مَنْظَرُهُ كَالْبَرْقِ، وَلِبَاسُهُ أَبْيَضَ كَالثَّلْجِ.His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:Matthew 28:3, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
كَالثَّلْجِ فِي الصَّيْفِ وَكَالْمَطَرِ فِي الْحَصَادِ، هكَذَا الْكَرَامَةُ غَيْرُ لاَئِقَةٍ بِالْجَاهِلِ.As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.Proverbs 26:1, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَأَمَّا رَأْسُهُ وَشَعْرُهُ فَأَبْيَضَانِ كَالصُّوفِ الأَبْيَضِ كَالثَّلْجِ، وَعَيْنَاهُ كَلَهِيبِ نَارٍ.His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;Revelation 1:14, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
