14. Each of the winged creatures had four faces: the face of a bull, the face of a human, the face of a lion, and the face of an eagle.
15-17. These were the same creatures I had seen near the River Chebar. They controlled when and where the wheels moved—the wheels went wherever the creatures went and stopped whenever they stopped. Even when the creatures flew in the air, the wheels stayed beside them.
18. Then I watched the brightness of the Lord's glory move from the entrance of the temple and stop above the winged creatures.
19. They spread their wings and flew into the air with the wheels at their side. They stopped at the east gate of the temple, and the Lord's glory was above them.
20. I knew for certain that these were the same creatures I had seen beneath the Lord's glory near the River Chebar.
21-22. They had four wings with hands beneath them, and they had the same four faces as those near the River. Each creature moved straight ahead without turning.
