This is the living creature{H2416} that I saw{H7200}{(H8804)} by the river{H5104} of Chebar{H3529}. 16 And when the cherubims{H3742} went{H3212}{(H8800)}, the wheels{H212} went{H3212}{(H8799)} by them{H681}: and when the cherubims{H3742} lifted up{H5375}{(H8800)} their wings{H3671} to mount up{H7311}{(H8800)} from the earth{H776}, the same wheels{H212} also{H1992} turned{H5437}{(H8735)} not from beside{H681} them. 17 When they stood{H5975}{(H8800)}, these stood{H5975}{(H8799)}; and when they were lifted up{H7311}{(H8800)}, these lifted up{H7426}{(H8735)} themselves also: for the spirit{H7307} of the living creature{H2416} was in them. 18 Then the glory{H3519} of the LORD{H3068} departed{H3318}{(H8799)} from off the threshold{H4670} of the house{H1004}, and stood{H5975}{(H8799)} over the cherubims{H3742}. 19 And the cherubims{H3742} lifted up{H5375}{(H8799)} their wings{H3671}, and mounted up{H7426}{(H8735)} from the earth{H776} in my sight{H5869}: when they went out{H3318}{(H8800)}, the wheels{H212} also were beside{H5980} them, and every one stood{H5975}{(H8799)} at the door{H6607} of the east{H6931} gate{H8179} of the LORD'S{H3068} house{H1004}; and the glory{H3519} of the God{H430} of Israel{H3478} was over them above{H4605}. 20 This is the living creature{H2416} that I saw{H7200}{(H8804)} under the God{H430} of Israel{H3478} by the river{H5104} of Chebar{H3529}; and I knew{H3045}{(H8799)} that they were the cherubims{H3742}. 21 Every one{H259} had four{H702} faces{H6440} apiece{H259}, and every one{H259} four{H702} wings{H3671}; and the likeness{H1823} of the hands{H3027} of a man{H120} was under their wings{H3671}. 22 And the likeness{H1823} of their faces{H6440} was the same{H1992} faces{H6440} which I saw{H7200}{(H8804)} by the river{H5104} of Chebar{H3529}, their appearances{H4758} and themselves: they went{H3212}{(H8799)} every one{H376} straight{H5676} forward{H6440}.
