6but each had four faces and four wings.
7Their legs were straight, but the soles of their feet were like calves’ feet. They gleamed like polished bronze.
8They had human hands under their wings on their four sides. As for the faces and wings of the four of them,
9their wings touched each other; they did not turn as they moved, but went straight ahead.
10Their faces had this appearance: Each of the four had the face of a man, with the face of a lion on the right, the face of an ox on the left and also the face of an eagle.
11Their wings were spread out above them; each had two wings touching the wings of one of the other beings on either side and two wings covering their bodies.
12Each moved straight ahead– wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went.
13In the middle of the living beings was something like burning coals of fire or like torches. It moved back and forth among the living beings. It was bright, and lightning was flashing out of the fire.
14The living beings moved backward and forward as quickly as flashes of lightning.
15Then I looked, and I saw one wheel on the ground beside each of the four beings.
16The appearance of the wheels and their construction was like gleaming jasper, and all four wheels looked alike. Their structure was like a wheel within a wheel.
17When they moved they would go in any of the four directions they faced without turning as they moved.
18Their rims were high and awesome, and the rims of all four wheels were full of eyes all around.
19When the living beings moved, the wheels beside them moved; when the living beings rose up from the ground, the wheels rose up too.
20Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise up beside them because the spirit of the living being was in the wheel.
21When the living beings moved, the wheels moved, and when they stopped moving, the wheels stopped. When they rose up from the ground, the wheels rose up from the ground; the wheels rose up beside them because the spirit of the living being was in the wheel.
22Over the heads of the living beings was something like a platform, glittering awesomely like ice, stretched out over their heads.
23Under the platform their wings were stretched out, each toward the other. Each of the beings also had two wings covering its body.
24When they moved, I heard the sound of their wings– it was like the sound of rushing waters, or the voice of the Sovereign One, or the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.
25Then there was a voice from above the platform over their heads when they stood still.
26Above the platform over their heads was something like a sapphire shaped like a throne. High above on the throne was a form that appeared to be a man.
27I saw an amber glow like a fire enclosed all around from his waist up. From his waist down I saw something that looked like fire. There was a brilliant light around it,
28like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds after the rain. This was the appearance of the surrounding brilliant light; it looked like the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I threw myself face down, and I heard a voice speaking.

19The cherubim spread their wings, and they rose up from the earth while I watched(when they went the wheels went alongside them). They stopped at the entrance to the east gate of the LORD’s temple as the glory of the God of Israel hovered above them.
20These were the living creatures which I saw at the Kebar River underneath the God of Israel; I knew that they were cherubim.
21Each had four faces; each had four wings and the form of human hands under the wings.
22As for the form of their faces, they were the faces whose appearance I had seen at the Kebar River. Each one moved straight ahead.

8(The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.)
9As I watched, I noticed four wheels by the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub; the wheels gleamed like jasper.
10As for their appearance, all four of them looked the same, something like a wheel within a wheel.
11When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions they faced without turning as they moved; in the direction the head would turn they would follow without turning as they moved,
12along with their entire bodies, their backs, their hands, and their wings. The wheels of the four of them were full of eyes all around.
13As for their wheels, they were called“the wheelwork” as I listened.
14Each of the cherubim had four faces: The first was the face of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
15The cherubim rose up; these were the living beings I saw at the Kebar River.
16When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them; when the cherubim spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not move from their side.
17When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when they rose up, the wheels rose up with them, for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.
