Ezekiel 1:6-12

6EachH259 of them had 1fourH702 facesH6440 and 2fourH702 wingsH3671.

7Their legsH7272 were straightH3477 and 3their feetH7272 were like a calf’sH5695 hoofH3709H7272, and they gleamedH5340 like 4burnishedH7044 bronzeH5178.

8UnderH8478 their wingsH3671 on their 5fourH702 sidesH7253 were humanH120 6handsH3027. As for the facesH6440 and wingsH3671 of the fourH702 of them,

9their wingsH3671 touchedH2266 oneH802 anotherH269; their faces did 7not turnH5437 when they movedH1980, eachH376 8wentH1980 straightH413H5676H6440 forwardH6440.

10As for the 9formH1823 of their facesH6440, each had the 10faceH6440 of a manH120; 11all fourH702 had the faceH6440 of a lionH743 on the rightH3225 and the faceH6440 of a bullH7794 on the leftH8040, and 12all fourH702 had the faceH6440 of an eagleH5404.

11Such were their facesH6440. Their wingsH3671 were spreadH6504 out aboveH4480H4605; eachH376 had twoH8147 touchingH2266 anotherH376 being, and 13twoH8147 coveringH3680 their bodiesH1472.

12And 14eachH376 wentH1980 straightH413H5676H6440 forwardH6440; 15whereverH413H834H8033 the spiritH7307 was about to goH1980, they would goH1980, withoutH3808 turningH5437 as they wentH1980.
