Ezekiel 10

10Then I looked, and, behold, in ^athe firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them ^bas it were a sapphire stone, ^bas the appearance of the likeness of ^ca throne. ²And he spake unto ^dthe man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between ^ethe wheels, even under the cherub, and fill ^†thine hand with ^fcoals of fire from between the cherubims, and ^gscatter them over the city. And he went in ^hin my sight. ³Now the cherubims stood ⁱon the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled ^jthe inner court. ⁴Then ^kthe glory of the Lord ^†went up from the cherub, and stood over ^lthe threshold of the house; and ^mthe house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of ^knthe brightness of the Lord’s glory. ⁵And ⁿⁿthe sound of the cherubims’ wings was heard even to the outer court, ⁿas the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh. ⁶And it came to pass, that when he had commanded ^dthe man clothed with linen, saying, ^oTake fire from between ^ethe wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels. ⁷And one cherub ^†stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into ^othe hands of ^dhim that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.

^8pAnd there appeared in the cherubims ^qthe form of a man’s hand under their wings. ^9rAnd when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and ^sthe appearance of the wheels was as ^tthe colour of a beryl stone. ¹⁰And as for their appearances, ^sthey four had one likeness, ^sas if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel. ^11uWhen they went, they went ^vupon their four sides; ^uthey turned not as they went, but ^wto the place whither the head looked they followed it; ^uthey turned not as they went. ¹²And their whole ^†body, and ^xtheir backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were ^xfull of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had. ¹³As for ^ethe wheels, ^||it was cried unto them in my hearing, ^eO wheel. ^14zAnd every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and ^athe second face was the face of a man, and ^athe third the face of a lion, and ^athe fourth the face of an eagle. ¹⁵And the cherubims ^bwere lifted up. ^cThis is the living creature that I saw ^dby the river of Chebar. ^16eAnd when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: ^eand when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them. ^17fWhen they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these ^blifted up themselves also: for ^gthe spirit ^||of the living creature was in them.

¹⁸Then ^hthe glory of the Lord ⁱdeparted from off ^hthe threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims. ^19jAnd the cherubims lifted up their wings, and ^bmounted up from the earth ^kin my sight: when they went out, ^jthe wheels also were ^lbeside them, and every one stood at the door of ^mthe east gate of the Lord’s house; and ^hjthe glory of the God of Israel was over them above. ^20cThis is the living creature that I saw ⁿunder the God of Israel ^dby the river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the ^ocherubims. ^21pEvery one had four faces apiece, ^pand every one four wings; and ^qthe likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings. ^22rAnd the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw ^dby the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: ^sthey went every one straight forward.
