| Ezekiel | 1 | (1) NOW IT came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (2) In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity, | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (3) The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (4) And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (5) Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (6) And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (7) And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (8) And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (9) Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (10) As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (11) Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (12) And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (13) As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (14) And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (15) Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (16) The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (17) When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (18) As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (19) And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. | |
| Ezekiel | 1 | (20) Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. | |
