They had human hands under their wings on their four sides. As for the faces and wings of the four of them,

You must turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared and prophesy against it.

“Son of man, turn toward the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them:

I will place the corpses of the people of Israel in front of their idols, and I will scatter your bones around your altars.

I will turn my face away from them and they will desecrate my treasured place. Vandals will enter it and desecrate it.

“Son of man, turn toward Mount Seir, and prophesy against it.

You will fall dead in the open field; for I have spoken, declares the sovereign Lord.
