Ezekiel 10

American Standard Version

1Then I lookedH7200, and, behold, in the firmamentH7549 that was over the headH7218 of the cherubimH3742 there appearedH7200 above them as it were a sapphireH5601 stoneH68, as the appearanceH4758 of the likenessH1823 of a throneH3678. 2And he spake unto the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, and saidH559, GoH935 in between the whirlingH1534 wheelsH1534, even under the cherubH3742, and fillH4390 both thy handsH2651 with coalsH1513 of fireH784 from between the cherubimH3742, and scatter them over the cityH5892. And he wentH935 in in my sight. 3Now the cherubimH3742 stoodH5975 on the rightH3225 sideH3225 of the houseH1004, when the manH376 wentH935 in; and the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the innerH6442 courtH2691. 4And the gloryH3519 of Jehovah mounted up from the cherubH3742, and stood over the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004; and the houseH1004 was filledH4390 with the cloudH6051, and the courtH2691 was fullH4390 of the brightnessH5051 of Jehovah’s gloryH3519. 5And the soundH6963 of the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 was heardH8085 even to the outerH2435 courtH2691, as the voiceH6963 of GodH410 AlmightyH7706 when he speaketh. 6And it cameH935 to pass, when he commandedH6680 the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, sayingH559, TakeH3947 fireH784 from between the whirlingH1534 wheelsH212, from between the cherubimH3742, that he wentH935 in, and stoodH5975 beside a wheelH212. 7And the cherubH3742 stretchedH7971 forthH3318 his handH3027 from between the cherubimH3742 unto the fireH784 that was between the cherubimH3742, and tookH3947 thereof, and putH5414 it into the handsH3027 of him that was clothedH3847 in linenH906, who tookH3947 it and wentH3318 out. 8And there appearedH7200 in the cherubimH3742 the formH8403 of a man’sH120 handH3027 under their wingsH3671.

9And I lookedH7200, and behold, fourH702 wheelsH212 beside the cherubimH3742, oneH259 wheelH212 beside oneH259 cherubH3742, and another wheelH212 beside another cherubH3742; and the appearanceH4758 of the wheelsH212 was like unto a beryl stoneH68. 10And as for their appearanceH4758, they fourH702 had oneH259 likenessH1823, as if a wheelH212 had beenH1961 within a wheelH212. 11When they wentH5437, they wentH5437 in their fourH702 directions: they turnedH6437 not as they wentH5437, but to the placeH4725 whither the headH7218 looked they followed it; they turnedH6437 not as they wentH5437. 12And their whole bodyH1320, and their backs, and their handsH3027, and their wingsH3671, and the wheelsH212, were fullH4392 of eyesH5869 roundH5439 about, even the wheelsH212 that they fourH702 had. 13As for the wheelsH212, they were calledH7121 in my hearing the whirlingH1534 wheelsH212. 14And every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440: the first faceH6440 was the faceH6440 of the cherubH3742, and the secondH8145 faceH6440 was the faceH6440 of a manH120, and the thirdH7992 the faceH6440 of a lionH738, and the fourthH7243 the faceH6440 of an eagleH5404.

15And the cherubimH3742 mounted up: this is the living creatureH2416 that I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 Chebar. 16And when the cherubimH3742 wentH5437, the wheelsH212 wentH5437 beside them; and when the cherubimH3742 liftedH5375 up their wingsH3671 to mount up from the earthH776, the wheelsH212 alsoH1571 turnedH5437 not from beside them. 17When they stoodH5975, these stoodH5975; and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in them.

18And the gloryH3519 of Jehovah wentH3318 forthH3318 from over the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004, and stoodH5975 over the cherubimH3742. 19And the cherubimH3742 liftedH5375 up their wingsH3671, and mounted up from the earthH776 in my sight when they wentH3318 forthH3318, and the wheelsH212 beside them: and they stoodH5975 at the doorH6607 of the east gateH8179 of Jehovah’s houseH1004; and the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was over them above.

20This is the living creatureH2416 that I sawH7200 under the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 by the riverH5104 Chebar; and I knewH3045 that they were cherubimH3742. 21Every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440, and every oneH259 fourH702 wingsH3671; and the likenessH1823 of the handsH3027 of a manH120 was under their wingsH3671. 22And as for the likenessH1823 of their facesH6440, they were the facesH6440 which I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they went every oneH376 straight forward.
