28;
28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around Him. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking. (1)

26 Above
the vault over their heads was what looked like a throne of lapis
lazuli, and high above on the throne
was a figure like that of a Man.
(8)
27 I saw that from
what appeared to be His waist up He looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from
there down He looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded Him.

17 As
they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change
direction as the creatures went. (8)
18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of
eyes all around.
19 When the living
creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures
rose from the ground, the wheels also rose.
147
8 Under
their wings on their four sides they had human hands. All four of them had faces and wings, (8)
9 and the wings of
one touched the wings of another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not
turn as they moved.
10 Their faces looked
like this: Each of the four had the face of a human being, and on the right side each had the
face of a lion, and on the left the face of an ox; each also had the
face of an eagle.
147
23 Under
the vault their wings were stretched out one toward the other, and each had two wings covering its body. (5)
24 When the creatures
moved, I heard the sound of their wings, like the roar of rushing waters, like
the voice of the Almighty, like the tumult
of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.
25 Then there came a
voice from above the vault over their heads as they stood with lowered wings.
147
14 The
creatures sped back and forth like flashes of lightning. (5)
15 As I looked at the
living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces.
16 This was the
appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz, and all four looked alike. Each
appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel.
147
5 and
in the fire was what looked like
four living creatures. In appearance their form was human,
6 but each of them had four faces and four wings.
7 Their legs were
straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished
bronze.

20 Wherever
the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along
with them, because the spirit
of the living creatures was in the wheels. (2)
21 When the creatures
moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still;
and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them,
because the spirit of the living
creatures was in the wheels.
22 Spread out above the
heads of the living creatures was what looked something like a vault, sparkling like crystal, and
awesome.
147
11 Such
were their faces. They each had
two wings spreading out upward, each wing touching that of the
creature on either side; and each had two
other wings covering its body. (2)
12 Each one went straight
ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they
went.
13 The appearance of the
living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth
among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it.

1 In my thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was
among the exiles by the Kebar River, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
2 On
the fifth of the month—it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin— (2)
3 the word of the Lord came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, by the Kebar River
in the land of the Babylonians. There the hand of the Lord
was on him.
4 I looked, and I saw a
windstorm coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked
like glowing metal,
