God’s Word Translation
Ezekiel 10:2-14
2The Lord said to the person dressed in linen, “Go between the wheels under the angels, and fill your hands with burning coals. Then scatter them over the city.” So he went between the wheels as I watched.
3The angels were standing on the south side of the temple as the person went. A cloud filled the inner courtyard.
4The Lord’s glory rose from the angels to the entrance of the temple, the cloud filled the temple, and the brightness of the Lord’s glory filled the courtyard.
5The sound of the angels’ wings was heard as far as the outer courtyard. It was like the sound of the Almighty God when he speaks.
6After the Lord had commanded the person dressed in linen to take burning coals from between the wheels beside the angels, the person went in and stood beside one of the wheels.
7One of the angels reached into the fire that was between the angels and took out some coals. This angel put them in the hands of the person dressed in linen. The person took them and left.
8The angels appeared to have what looked like human hands under their wings.
9As I looked, I saw four wheels beside the angels, one wheel beside each of the angels. The wheels looked like beryl.
10All four wheels looked the same. Each was like a wheel within a wheel.
11Whenever the angels moved, they moved in any of the four directions without turning as they moved. They always moved in the direction they faced without turning as they moved.
12Their entire bodies, their backs, hands, wings, and wheels were covered with eyes. Each of the angels had a wheel.
13I heard that the wheels were called the whirling wheels.
14Each of the angels had four faces. The first was the face of an angel, the second was the face of a human, the third was the face of a lion, and the fourth was the face of an eagle.
