1Then I 1looked, and, behold, in the 2firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2And he spake unto 1the man clothed with linen, and said, 2Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill athine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and 3scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.
3Now the cherubims stood 1on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and 2the cloud filled the inner court.
4Then the 1glory of the Lordawent up from the cherub, 2and stood over the threshold of the house; and 3the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord's glory.
5And 1the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the 2outer court, as the 3voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
6And it came to pass, that1when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire 2from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and 3stood beside the wheels.
7And one cherub astretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and 1went out.
8¶ And 1there appeared in the cherubims 2the form of a man's hand under their wings.
9And 1when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
10And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a 1wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
11When 1they went, they went 2upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
12And their whole abody, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were1full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.
13As for the wheels, ait was 1cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.
14And 1every one had four faces: 2the first face was the face of a cherub, and 3the second face was the face of a man, and 4the third the face of a lion, and 5the fourth the face of an eagle.
15And the cherubims were 1lifted up. 2This is the living creature that I saw 3by the river of Chebar.
16And 1when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
17When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for 1the spirit aof the living creature was in them.
18Then the glory of the Lord1departed from off the threshold of the house, and 2stood over the cherubims.
19And 1the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also were beside them, and every one stood 2at the door of 3the east gate of the Lord's house; 4and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
201This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and 2I knew that they were the cherubims.
211Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they 1went every one straight forward.
