New International Version

1Then I looked, and there above the expanse over the heads of the cherubim was something like a throne with the appearance of lapis lazuli.

1I looked, and I saw the likeness of a throne of lapis lazuli above the vault that was over the heads of the cherubim.

2The LORD spoke to the man clothed in linen and said, "Go inside the wheelwork beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with blazing coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city." So he went in as I watched.

2The LORD said to the man clothed in linen, "Go in among the wheels beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city." And as I watched, he went in.

3Now the cherubim were standing to the south of the temple when the man went in, and the cloud filled the inner court.

3Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.

4Then the glory of the LORD rose from above the cherub to the threshold of the temple. The temple was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the LORD's glory.

4Then the glory of the LORD rose from above the cherubim and moved to the threshold of the temple. The cloud filled the temple, and the court was full of the radiance of the glory of the LORD.

5The sound of the cherubim's wings could be heard as far as the outer court; it was like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.

5The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far away as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.

6After the LORD commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, "Take fire from inside the wheelwork, from among the cherubim," the man went in and stood beside a wheel.

6When the LORD commanded the man in linen, "Take fire from among the wheels, from among the cherubim," the man went in and stood beside a wheel.

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

7Then 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.

8The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.

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

9I looked, and there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The luster of the wheels was like the gleam of beryl.

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

10In appearance, all four looked alike, like a wheel within a wheel.

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

11When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions, without pivoting as they moved. But wherever the head faced, they would go in that direction, without pivoting as they went.

11As 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.

12Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, wings, and the wheels that the four of them had, were full of eyes all around.

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

13As I listened the wheels were called "the wheelwork."

13I heard the wheels being called "the whirling wheels."

14Each one had four faces: one was the face of a cherub, the second the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

14Each 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.

15The cherubim ascended; these were the living creatures I had seen by the Chebar Canal.

15Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River.

16When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and when they lifted their wings to rise from the earth, even then the wheels did not veer away from them.

16When the cherubim moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the cherubim spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not leave their side.

17When the cherubim stopped, the wheels stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

17When the cherubim stood still, they also stood still; and when the cherubim rose, they rose with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

18Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim.

18Then the glory of the LORD departed from over the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim.

19The cherubim lifted their wings and ascended from the earth right before my eyes; the wheels were beside them as they went. The glory of the God of Israel was above them, and it stopped at the entrance to the eastern gate of the LORD's house.

19While I watched, the cherubim spread their wings and rose from the ground, and as they went, the wheels went with them. They stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the LORD's house, and the glory of the God of Israel was above them.

20These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the Chebar Canal, and I recognized that they were cherubim.

20These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the Kebar River, and I realized that they were cherubim.

21Each had four faces and each had four wings, with what looked something like human hands under their wings.

21Each had four faces and four wings, and under their wings was what looked like human hands.

22Their faces looked like the same faces I had seen by the Chebar Canal. Each creature went straight ahead.

22Their faces had the same appearance as those I had seen by the Kebar River. Each one went straight ahead.
