Ezekiel 10:16-22
10:16 When 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.
10:17 When 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.
10:18 Then the glory of the Lord moved away from the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim.
10:19 The 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.
10:20 These were the living creatures which I saw at the Kebar River underneath the God of Israel; I knew that they were cherubim.
10:21 Each had four faces; each had four wings and the form of human hands under the wings.
10:22 As for the form of their faces, they were the faces whose appearance I had seen at the Kebar River. Each one moved straight ahead.
