1 Now in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. Ezekiel 1:1WEB
2 In the fifth of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin’s captivity, Ezekiel 1:2WEB
3 YHWH’s word came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and YHWH’s hand was there on him. Ezekiel 1:3WEB
4 I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came out of the north: a great cloud, with flashing lightning, and a brightness around it, and out of the middle of it as it were glowing metal, out of the middle of the fire. Ezekiel 1:4WEB
5 Out of its center came the likeness of four living creatures. This was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man. Ezekiel 1:5WEB
6 Everyone had four faces, and each one of them had four wings. Ezekiel 1:6WEB
7 Their feet were straight feet. The sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot; and they sparkled like burnished bronze. Ezekiel 1:7WEB
8 They had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides. The four of them had their faces and their wings like this: Ezekiel 1:8WEB
9 Their wings were joined to one another. They didn’t turn when they went. Each one went straight forward. Ezekiel 1:9WEB
10 As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man. The four of them had the face of a lion on the right side. The four of them had the face of an ox on the left side. The four of them also had the face of an eagle. Ezekiel 1:10WEB
11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. Two wings of each one touched another, and two covered their bodies. Ezekiel 1:11WEB
12 Each one went straight forward. Where the spirit was to go, they went. They didn’t turn when they went. Ezekiel 1:12WEB
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches. The fire went up and down among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and lightning went out of the fire. Ezekiel 1:13WEB
14 The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning. Ezekiel 1:14WEB
15 Now as I saw the living creatures, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it. Ezekiel 1:15WEB
16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. The four of them had one likeness. Their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel. Ezekiel 1:16WEB
17 When they went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn when they went. Ezekiel 1:17WEB
18 As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and the four of them had their rims full of eyes all around. Ezekiel 1:18WEB
19 When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. Ezekiel 1:19WEB
20 Wherever the spirit was to go, they went. The spirit was to go there. The wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. Ezekiel 1:20WEB
21 When those went, these went. When those stood, these stood. When those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. Ezekiel 1:21WEB
22 Over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of an expanse, like an awesome crystal to look at, stretched out over their heads above. Ezekiel 1:22WEB
23 Under the expanse, their wings were straight, one toward the other. Each one had two which covered on this side, and each one had two which covered their bodies on that side. Ezekiel 1:23WEB
24 When they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army. When they stood, they let down their wings. Ezekiel 1:24WEB
25 There was a voice above the expanse that was over their heads. When they stood, they let down their wings. Ezekiel 1:25WEB
26 Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. On the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it above. Ezekiel 1:26WEB
27 I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him. Ezekiel 1:27WEB
28 As the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of YHWH’s glory. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke. Ezekiel 1:28WEB
