NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Ezekiel 10

Vision of God's Glory Departing from the Temple

1

Then I lookedh7200, and beholdh2009, in the  1 aexpanseh7549 that was overh5921 the headsh7218 of the cherubimh3742 something like a  bsapphireh5601 stoneh68, in appearanceh4758 resemblingh1823 a  cthroneh3678, appearedh7200 aboveh5921 them.

2

And He spokeh559 to the manh376 clothedh3847 in linenh906 and saidh559, "Enterh935 betweenh996 the  awhirlingh1534 wheelsh1534 underh8478 the  1cherubimh3742 and fillh4390 your handsh2651 with  bcoalsh1513 of fireh784 from betweenh996 the cherubimh3742 and scatterh2236b them overh5921 the cityh5892b." And he enteredh935 in my sighth5869.

3

Now the cherubimh3742 were standingh5975 on the righth3225 sideh3225 of the  1templeh1004 when the manh376 enteredh935, and the cloudh6051 filledh4390 the  ainnerh6442 courth2691a.

4

Then the  agloryh3519b of the LORDh3068 wenth7311 up from the cherubh3742 to the thresholdh4670 of the templeh1004, and the  btempleh1004 was filledh4390 with the cloudh6051 and the courth2691a was filledh4390 with the  cbrightnessh5051 of the gloryh3519b of the LORDh3068.

5

Moreover, the soundh6963 of the wingsh3671 of the cherubimh3742 was heardh8085 as farh5704 as the outerh2435 courth2691a, like the  avoiceh6963 of  1Godh410 Almightyh7706b when He speaksh1696.

6

It cameh1961 about when He commandedh6680 the manh376 clothedh3847 in linenh906, sayingh559, "Takeh3947 fireh784 from betweenh996 the whirlingh1534 wheelsh1534, from betweenh996 the cherubimh3742," he enteredh935 and stoodh5975 besideh681a a wheelh212.

7

Then the cherubh3742 stretchedh7971 out his handh3027 from betweenh996 the cherubimh3742 to the fireh784 whichh834 was betweenh996 the cherubimh3742, tookh5375 some and puth5414 it into the handsh2651 of the one clothedh3847 in linenh906, who tookh3947 it and wenth3318 out.

8

The cherubimh3742 appearedh7200 to have the formh8403 of a man'sh120 handh3027 underh8478 their wingsh3671.

9

Then I lookedh7200, and beholdh2009,  afourh702 wheelsh212 besideh681a the cherubimh3742, oneh259 wheelh212 besideh681a eachh259 cherubh3742; and the appearanceh4758 of the wheelsh212 was like the gleamh5869 of a  1 bTarshishh8659 stoneh68.

10

As for their appearanceh4758, all fourh702 of them had the sameh259 likenessh1823, as ifh834 one wheelh212 were withinh8432 another wheelh212.

11

When they movedh1980, they wenth1980  ain any of their fourh702  1directionsh7253 withouth3808 turningh5437 as they wenth1980; but they followedh310h1980 in the directionh4725 whichh834  2they facedh6437h7218, withouth3808 turningh5437 as they wenth1980.

12

Their  awholeh3605 bodyh1320, their backsh1354, their handsh3027, their wingsh3671 and the  bwheelsh212 were fullh4392 of eyesh5869 allh5439 aroundh5439, the wheelsh212 belonging to all fourh702 of them.

13

The wheelsh212 were calledh7121 in my hearingh241, the whirlingh1534 wheelsh1534.

14

And  aeachh259 oneh259 had fourh702 facesh6440. The firsth259 faceh6440 was the faceh6440 of a cherubh3742, the secondh8145 faceh6440 was the faceh6440 of a manh120, the thirdh7992 the faceh6440 of a lionh743b, and the fourthh7243 the faceh6440 of an eagleh5404.

15

Then the cherubimh3742 roseh7426a up. They are the  alivingh2421b beingsh2421b that I sawh7200 by the riverh5104 Chebarh3529.

16

Now when the cherubimh3742 movedh1980, the wheelsh212 would goh1980 besideh681a them; also when the cherubimh3742 liftedh5375 up their wingsh3671 to riseh7311 from the groundh776, the wheelsh212 would not turnh5437 from besideh681a them.

17

When  1the cherubim  astoodh5975 stillh5975,  1the wheels would standh5975 stillh5975; and when they roseh7426a up,  1the wheels would riseh7311 with them, for the spirith7307 of the livingh2421b beingsh2421b was in them.

18

Then the gloryh3519b of the LORDh3068 departedh3318 from the thresholdh4670 of the templeh1004 and stoodh5975  aoverh5921 the cherubimh3742.

19

When  athe cherubimh3742 departedh3318, they liftedh5375 their wingsh3671 and roseh7426a up from the earthh776 in my sighth5869 with the wheelsh212 besideh5980 them; and they stoodh5975 stillh5975 at the entranceh6607 of the easth6931 gateh8179 of the LORD'Sh3068 househ1004, and the gloryh3519b of the Godh430 of Israelh3478  1hoveredh4480h4605 overh5921 them.

20

Theseh1931 are the  alivingh2421b beingsh2421b that I sawh7200 beneathh8478 the Godh430 of Israelh3478 by  bthe riverh5104 Chebarh3529; so I knewh3045 that they were cherubimh3742.

21

 aEachh259 oneh259 had fourh702 facesh6440 and eachh259 oneh259 fourh702 wingsh3671, and beneathh8478 their wingsh3671 was the formh1823 of humanh120 handsh3027.

22

As for the likenessh1823 of their facesh6440, they were the sameh1992a facesh6440 whoseh834 appearanceh4758 I had seenh7200 by the riverh5104 Chebarh3529. Eachh376 oneh376 wenth1980 straighth413h5676h6440 aheadh6440.
