    4And I looked, and behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire enfolding itself, and brightness was about it, and out of its midst was as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire.

    5Also out of its midst came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.

    6And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

    7And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass.

    8And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and the four of them had their faces and their wings.

    9Their wings were joined to one another; they turned not when they went; they each went straight forward.

    10As for the likeness of their faces, the four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side; and the four had the face of an ox on the left side; the four also had the face of an eagle.

    11Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of each were joined to one another, and two covered their bodies.

    12And each went straight forward: wherever the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.

    13As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

    21When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

    22And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the color of an awesome crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.

    23And under the firmament were their wings straight, one toward the other: each one had two, which covered on this side, and each one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
