Ezekiel 1:13-25 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

13. As for the form of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, resembling torches moving between the living creatures. There was brightness to the fire, and lightning went forth from the fire.

14. The living creatures were running back and forth like flashes of lightning.

15. As I looked at the living creatures, behold, one wheel was on the ground next to each of the four-faced creatures.

16. The appearance and structure of the wheels was like the gleaming of beryl. The four had the same likeness, their appearance and their structure seemed to be a wheel within a wheel.

17. When they went, they went in any of their four directions without pivoting as they went.

18. Their rims were high and awesome—all four rims were full of eyes all around.

19. When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. When the living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose.

20. Wherever the Ruach wanted to go, they went, in the direction the Ruach wanted to go. The wheels rose along with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

21. Whenever the creatures went, the wheels went. When the creatures stood still, these wheels stood still. When the creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

22. Now over the heads of the living creatures there was something like an expanse, shining like the color of ice, stretched forth over their heads.

23. Under the expanse, their wings were stretched out straight, one toward the other. Each had another pair covering its body.

24. When they moved, I could hear the sound of their wings like the sound of rushing waters, like the voice of Shaddai, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army. Whenever they stood still, they let down their wings.

25. There came a voice from above the expanse over their heads. Whenever they stood still, they let down their wings.
