New Testament

Ezekiel 10:1-12 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. As I looked at the dome over the heads of the angels, I saw something that looked like a throne made of sapphire.

2. The Lord said to the person dressed in linen, “Go between the wheels under the angels, and fill your hands with burning coals. Then scatter them over the city.” So he went between the wheels as I watched.

3. The angels were standing on the south side of the temple as the person went. A cloud filled the inner courtyard.

4. The Lord’s glory rose from the angels to the entrance of the temple, the cloud filled the temple, and the brightness of the Lord’s glory filled the courtyard.

5. The sound of the angels’ wings was heard as far as the outer courtyard. It was like the sound of the Almighty God when he speaks.

6. After the Lord had commanded the person dressed in linen to take burning coals from between the wheels beside the angels, the person went in and stood beside one of the wheels.

7. One of the angels reached into the fire that was between the angels and took out some coals. This angel put them in the hands of the person dressed in linen. The person took them and left.

8. The angels appeared to have what looked like human hands under their wings.

9. As I looked, I saw four wheels beside the angels, one wheel beside each of the angels. The wheels looked like beryl.

10. All four wheels looked the same. Each was like a wheel within a wheel.

11. Whenever the angels moved, they moved in any of the four directions without turning as they moved. They always moved in the direction they faced without turning as they moved.

12. Their entire bodies, their backs, hands, wings, and wheels were covered with eyes. Each of the angels had a wheel.
