1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the sky above the head of the cherubim there appeared over them what looked like a sapphire stone, resembling a throne.
2 And he spoke to the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. And he went in, in my sight.
3 Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, as the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Then the glory of the LORD 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 LORD's glory.
5 And the sound of the cherubim's wings was heard even in the outer court, like the voice of Almighty God when He speaks.
6 And it happened, that when he commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
7 And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took it, and put it into the hands of the man clothed with linen, who took it and went out.
8 And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.
9 And when I looked, behold, the four wheels by the cherubim, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was like the color of a beryl stone.
10 And regarding their appearances, the four had one likeness, as if one wheel was within another wheel.
11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they did not turn as they went, but they followed wherever the head looked; they did not turn as they went.
12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, the wheels that they four had.
13 As for the wheels, it was called to them in my hearing, O wheel.
14 And each one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, the second was the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 And the cherubim were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
16 And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them: and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to rise from the earth, the same wheels also did not turn 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 LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.
