Over the heads of the living beings was something like a platform, glittering awesomely like ice, stretched out over their heads.

Each had four faces; each had four wings and the form of human hands under the wings.

Their 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.

In 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.

The 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.

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.
