16. And when the cherubims went, the wheels also went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings, to mount up from the earth, the wheels stayed not behind, but were by them.
17. When they stood, these stood: and when they were lifted up, these were lifted up: for the spirit of life was in them.
18. And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple: and stood over the cherubims.
19. And the cherubims lifting up their wings, were raised from the earth before me: and as they went out, the wheels also followed: and it stood in the entry of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
20. This is the living creature, which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chobar: and I understood that they were cherubims.
21. Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man's hand was under their wings.
22. And as to the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces which I had seen by the river Chobar, and their looks, and the impulse of every one to go straight forward.
