5And from its midstj was the likeness of four living creatures, and this was their appearance: a human form,k 6and each had four faces,l and each of them had four wings.m 7And their legs were straight legs, and the sole of their feet was like the sole of the foot of a calf, and they were sparkling like the outward appearance of polished bronze. 8And under their wings were human handsn on their four sides. And their faces and their wings for the four of them were as follows: 9their wings were touching one another;o each of them went straight forward,p without turning right or left.q 10The likeness of their faces was the face of a human in front, and the face of a lion on the right of each of them,r and the face of an ox on the left of each of them,s and the face of an eagle for each of them.t 11So were their faces; their wings were spread out upward;u each had two touching one another and two covering their bodies. 12And each went straight forward;v wherever the spirit wentw they went, and they did not turn as they went.x
