Book 14 : NEVIIM - EZEKIEL - Chapter 010
10:001
Then I looked, and, behold, upon the firmament that was
over the head of the cherubim, there appeared above them as it were a sapphire
stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne
10:002
And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go
in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with
coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he
went in in my sight
10:003
Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when
the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court
10:004
And the glory of HaShem mounted up from the cherub to the
threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court
was full of the brightness of HaShem'S glory
10:005
And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even
to the outer court, as the voice of G-d Almighty when He speaketh
10:006
And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in
linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the
cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel
10:007
And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the
cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put
it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out
10:008
And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand
under their wings
10:009
And I looked, and behold four wheels beside the cherubim,
one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the
appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone
10:010
And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness,
as if a wheel had been within a wheel
10:011
When they went, they went toward their four sides; they
turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed
it; they turned not as they went
10:012
And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands,
and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, even the wheels
that they four had
10:013
As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing The
wheelwork
10:014
And every one had four faces: the first face was the face
of the cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face
of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle
10:015
And the cherubim mounted up--this is the living creature
that I saw by the river Chebar
10:016
And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them;
and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same
wheels also turned not from beside them
10:017
When they stood, these stood, and when they mounted up,
these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them
10:018
And the glory of HaShem went forth from off the threshold
of the house, and stood over the cherubim
10:019
And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up
from the earth in my sight when they went forth, and the wheels beside them; and
they stood at the door of the east gate of HaShem'S house; and the glory of the
G-d of Israel was over them above
10:020
This is the living creature that I saw under the G-d of
Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim
10:021
Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings;
and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings
10:022
And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the
faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they
went every one straight forward
