Ezekiel 1:8-16 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

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.

16. The appearance of the wheels and their work was as the look of a chrysolite; and they four had one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
