15. Then the living creatures flew up. They were the same living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River.
16. When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved beside them. When the living creatures lifted their wings to fly up from the ground, the wheels did not leave their place beside them.
17. When the living creatures stopped, the wheels stopped. When the creatures went up, the wheels went up also, 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. As I watched, the living creatures spread their wings and flew up from the ground, with the wheels beside them. They stood where the east gate of the Temple of the Lord opened, and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
20. These were the living creatures I had seen under the God of Israel by the Kebar River. I knew they were called cherubim.
21. Each one had four faces and four wings, and under their wings were things that looked like human hands.
22. Their faces looked the same as the ones I had seen by the Kebar River. They each went straight ahead.
