13. The living creatures looked like burning coals of fire. They were like torches. Fire went back and forth among the living creatures. It was bright, and lightning flashed from it.
14. The living creatures ran back and forth like bolts of lightning.
15. Now I looked at the living creatures. And I saw a wheel on the ground by each of the living creatures with its four faces.
16. The wheels and the way they were made were like this: They looked like sparkling chrysolite. All four of them looked the same. The wheels looked like one wheel crossways inside another wheel.
17. When they moved, they went in any one of the four directions. They did not turn as they went.
18. I saw the rims of the wheels. The rims were full of eyes all around.
19. When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the ground, the wheels also were lifted up.
20. Wherever the spirit would go, the living creatures would go. And the wheels were lifted up beside them. This is because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
21. When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved. When the living creatures stopped, the wheels stopped. And when the living creatures were lifted from the ground, the wheels were lifted beside them. This is because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
22. Now there was something like a dome over the heads of the living creatures. It sparkled like ice and was frightening.
23. And under the dome the wings of the living creatures were stretched out straight toward one another. Each living creature also had two wings covering its body.
24. I heard the sound of their wings as they moved. It was like the roaring sound of the sea. It was like the voice of God All-Powerful. It was a roaring sound like a noisy army. When the living creatures stood still, they lowered their wings.
25. And a voice came from above the dome over the heads of the living creatures. When the living creatures stood still, they lowered their wings.
