Ezekiel 1:15-21

15As I looked at these beings, I saw four wheels touching the ground beside them, one wheel belonging to each.

16The wheels sparkled as if made of beryl. All four wheels looked alike and were made the same; each wheel had a second wheel turning crosswise within it.

17The beings could move in any of the four directions they faced, without turning as they moved.

18The rims of the four wheels were tall and frightening, and they were covered with eyes all around.

19When the living beings moved, the wheels moved with them. When they flew upward, the wheels went up, too.

20The spirit of the living beings was in the wheels. So wherever the spirit went, the wheels and the living beings also went.

21When the beings moved, the wheels moved. When the beings stopped, the wheels stopped. When the beings flew upward, the wheels rose up, for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.
