Ezekiel 10:14–21

¹⁴Each one had four faces: ^sthe first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.

¹⁵The cherubim ascended; these were the living creatures I had seen by the Chebar Canal. ^t16When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and when they lifted their wings to rise from the earth, even then the wheels did not veer away from them. ¹⁷When the cherubim stood still, ^uthe wheels stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

¹⁸Then the glory of the Lord moved away from the threshold of the temple ^vand stood above the cherubim. ^w19The cherubim lifted their wings and ascended from the earth right before my eyes; ^xthe wheels were beside them as they went. The glory of the God of Israel was above them, and it stood at the entrance to the eastern gate of the Lord’s house.

²⁰These were the living creatures I had seen ^ybeneath the God of Israel by the Chebar Canal, ^zand I recognized that they were cherubim. ²¹Each had four faces and each had four wings, ^awith the form of human hands under their wings.
