14. Each living creature had four faces. The first face was the face of a creature with wings. The second face was the face of a man. The third was the face of a lion. And the fourth was the face of an eagle.
15. The living creatures flew up. They were the same living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River.
16. And when the living creatures moved, the wheels moved by their sides. The living creatures lifted their wings to fly up from the ground. And the wheels did not leave their sides.
17. When the living creatures stopped, the wheels stopped. When the creatures went up, the wheels went up also. This was because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
18. Then the glory of the Lord left the door of the Temple and stood over the living creatures.
19. The living creatures spread their wings. And they flew up from the ground while I watched. As they went up, the wheels stayed by their sides. They stood where the east gate of the Temple of the Lord opened. The glory of the God of Israel was over them.
20. These are the living creatures I had seen under the God of Israel. This was by the Kebar River. I knew they were called cherubim.
21. Each one had four faces. Each one had four wings. Things that looked like a man’s hands were under their wings.
22. Their faces looked the same as the ones I had seen by the Kebar River. They each went straight ahead.
