New Testament

Ezekiel 10:7-14 New International Version (NIV)

7. Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand to the fire that was among them. He took up some of it and put it into the hands of the man in linen, who took it and went out.

8. (Under the wings of the cherubim could be seen what looked like human hands.)

9. I looked, and I saw beside the cherubim four wheels, one beside each of the cherubim; the wheels sparkled like topaz.

10. As for their appearance, the four of them looked alike; each was like a wheel intersecting a wheel.

11. As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the cherubim faced; the wheels did not turn about as the cherubim went. The cherubim went in whatever direction the head faced, without turning as they went.

12. Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands and their wings, were completely full of eyes, as were their four wheels.

13. I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”

14. Each of the cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
