Ezekiel 10:18

Verse 18 of 22. The 10th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.

14Every one of them had four faces. The first face was the face of the cherub. The second face was the face of a man. The third face was the face of a lion. The fourth was the face of an eagle.

15The cherubim mounted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.

16When the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels also didn’t turn from beside them.

17When they stood, these stood. When they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.

18The LORD’s glory went out from over the threshold of the house and stood over the cherubim.

19The cherubim lifted up their wings and mounted up from the earth in my sight when they went out, with the wheels beside them. Then they stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

20This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.

21Every one had four faces, and every one four wings. The likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

22As for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves. They each went straight forward.
