noyes - Ezekiel:1:4-25

noyes@Ezekiel:1:4 @ And I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came from the north, a great cloud, and a mass of fire; and a brightness was round about it, and in the midst of it the appearance of bright brass, in the midst of the fire.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:5 @ And in the midst of it were the forms of four living creatures. And this was their appearance. They had the form of a man.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:6 @ And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:7 @ And their feet were upright; and the sole of their feet was as the sole of a calfs foot; and they sparkled like polished brass.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:8 @ And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides, and all four had faces and wings.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:9 @ Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not about when they went; they went every one straight forward.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:10 @ As for the form of their faces, all four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side, and all four had the face of an ox on the left side, and all four had also the face of an eagle.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:11 @ Thus were their faces. And their wings were expanded upward; two wings of every one were joined, and two covered their bodies.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And they went every one straight forward; whither the spirit was to go, they went, and they turned not about when they went.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:13 @ And the appearance of the living creatures was as coals of fire, burning like torches; and the fire moved about among the living creatures, and shone forth brightly; and out of the fire came forth lightning.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:14 @ And the living creatures ran backward and forward like a flash of lightning.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:15 @ Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold, there stood a wheel upon the earth by each of the living creatures, with its four sides.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:16 @ The appearance of the wheels, and their work, was like that of a chrysolite, and all four had one form, and their appearance and their work was as if a wheel had been within a wheel.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:17 @ When they went, they went upon their four sides, and they turned not about when they went.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:18 @ As for their felloes, they were high and terrible; and their felloes were full of eyes round about upon all four of them.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:19 @ And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:20 @ Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, whithersoever the spirit was to go; and the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:21 @ When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:22 @ And over the heads of the living creatures was the appearance of a firmament, like crystal, terrible, spread out over their heads above.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the firmament were their wings upright, the one toward the other; and every one had two, which covered his body.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And I heard the sound of their wings, as the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went,a sound like the noise of a host. And when they stood still, they let down their wings.

noyes@Ezekiel:1:25 @ And there was a voice from the firmament, that was over their heads; and they stood still, and let down their wings.
