Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there
appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2
And
he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels,
even
under the
cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter
them
over
the city. And he went in in my sight.
3
Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house,
when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4
Then the glory of the L
ORD
went up
from the cherub,
and stood
over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud,
and the court was full of the brightness of the L
ORD
’S glory.
5
And the sound of the cherubims’
wings was heard
even
to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
6
And
it came to pass,
that
when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from
between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
7
And
one
cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that
was
between
the cherubims, and took
thereof,
and put
it
into the hands of
him that was
clothed with linen: who
took
it,
and went out.
8
And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man’s hand under their wings.
9
And when
I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel
by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels
was
as the colour of a beryl stone.
10
And
as
for
their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
11
When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place
whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
12
And their whole body,
and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels,
were
full of eyes round about,
even
the wheels that they four had.
13
As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O
wheel.
14
And every one had four faces: the first face
was
the face of a cherub, and the second face
was
the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15
And
the cherubims were lifted up. This
is
the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
16
And
when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings
to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
17
When they stood,
these
stood; and when they were lifted up,
these
lifted up themselves
also:
for the spirit of the living
creature
was
in them.
18
Then the glory of the L
ORD
departed from off the threshold of the house,
and stood over the cherubims.
19
And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from
the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also
were
beside them, and
every one
stood
at the door of the east gate of the L
ORD
’S house; and the glory of the God of Israel
was
over them
above.
20
This
is
the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and
I knew that they
were
the cherubims.
21
Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings;
and the likeness of the hands of a man
was
under their wings.
22
And the likeness of their faces
was
the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went
every one straight forward.
