Ezekiel 1:5-15 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

5. Also out of the midst thereof, the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.

6. And every one had four faces, and every one of them had four wings.

7. And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot; and they sparkled as the look of burnished brass.

8. And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings:

9. their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.

10. And the likeness of their faces was the face of a man; and they four had the face of a lion on the right side; and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four had also the face of an eagle.

11. And their faces and their wings were parted above; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

12. And they went every one straight forward: whither the Spirit was to go, they went; they turned not when they went.

13. And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, as the appearance of torches: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright; and out of the fire went forth lightning.

14. And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

15. And I looked at the living creatures, and behold, one wheel upon the earth beside the living creatures, toward their four faces.
