1. Then I looked and saw something like a sapphire stone in the open space that was over the cherubim's heads. It looked like a throne above them.
|
1. Then I looked H7200 , and, behold H2009 , in H413 the firmament H7549 that H834 was above H5921 the head H7218 of the cherubims H3742 there appeared H7200 over H5921 them as it were a sapphire H5601 stone H68 , as the appearance H4758 of the likeness H1823 of a throne H3678 .
|
|
2. And the Lord said to the man dressed in linen, "Go in between the wheels under the cherubim. Fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim and throw them over the city." And as I watched, he went in.
|
2. And he spoke H559 unto H413 the man H376 clothed H3847 with linen H906 , and said H559 , Go in H935 H413 between H996 the wheels H1534 , even under H8478 the cherub H3742 , and fill H4390 thine hand H2651 with coals H1513 of fire H784 from between H4480 H996 the cherubims H3742 , and scatter H2236 them over H5921 the city H5892 . And he went H935 in in my sight H5869 .
|
|
3. Now the cherubim were standing on the right side of the house of the Lord when the man went in. And the cloud filled the open space inside.
|
3. Now the cherubims H3742 stood H5975 on the right side H4480 H3225 of the house H1004 , when the man H376 went in H935 ; and the cloud H6051 filled H4390 the inner H6442 H853 court H2691 .
|
|
4. Then the shining-greatness of the Lord went up from above the cherubim to the door of the Lord's house. The house of the Lord was filled with the cloud. And the open space was filled with the bright and shining-greatness of the Lord.
|
4. Then the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 went up H7311 from H4480 H5921 the cherub H3742 , and stood over H5921 the threshold H4670 of the house H1004 ; and the house H1004 was filled H4390 with H854 the cloud H6051 , and the court H2691 was full H4390 of H854 the brightness H5051 of the LORD H3068 's glory H3519 .
|
|
5. The sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard as far as the outside open space. It was like the voice of God All-powerful when He speaks.
|
5. And the sound H6963 of the cherubims H3742 ' wings H3671 was heard H8085 even to H5704 the outer H2435 court H2691 , as the voice H6963 of the Almighty H7706 God H410 when he speaketh H1696 .
|
|
6. When He told the man dressed in linen, "Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim," the man went in and stood beside a wheel.
|
6. And it came to pass H1961 , that when he had commanded H6680 H853 the man H376 clothed H3847 with linen H906 , saying H559 , Take H3947 fire H784 from between H4480 H996 the wheels H1534 , from between H4480 H996 the cherubims H3742 ; then he went in H935 , and stood H5975 beside H681 the wheels H212 .
|
|
7. Then one of the cherubim put out his hand to the fire which was among them. He took some and put it into the hands of the one dressed in linen, who took it and went out.
|
7. And one cherub H3742 stretched forth H7971 H853 his hand H3027 from between H4480 H996 the cherubims H3742 unto H413 the fire H784 that H834 was between H996 the cherubims H3742 , and took H5375 thereof , and put H5414 it into H413 the hands H2651 of him that was clothed H3847 with linen H906 : who took H3947 it , and went out H3318 .
|
|
8. (The cherubim had what looked like a man's hands under their wings.)
|
8. And there appeared H7200 in the cherubims H3742 the form H8403 of a man H120 's hand H3027 under H8478 their wings H3671 .
|
|
9. Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The wheels looked like they were made of shining chrysolite stone.
|
9. And when I looked H7200 , behold H2009 the four H702 wheels H212 by H681 the cherubims H3742 , one H259 wheel H212 by H681 one H259 cherub H3742 , and another H259 wheel H212 by H681 another H259 cherub H3742 : and the appearance H4758 of the wheels H212 was as the color H5869 of a beryl H8658 stone H68 .
|
|
10. All four of them looked the same. Each looked like they had one wheel inside another wheel.
|
10. And as for their appearances H4758 , they four H702 had one H259 likeness H1823 , as if H834 a wheel H212 had been H1961 in the midst H8432 of a wheel H212 .
|
|
11. When they moved, they went in any of their four ways without turning as they went, but followed the way the head was facing without turning as they went.
|
11. When they went H1980 , they went H1980 upon H413 their four H702 sides H7253 ; they turned H5437 not H3808 as they went H1980 , but H3588 to the place H4725 whither H834 the head H7218 looked H6437 they followed H1980 H310 it ; they turned H5437 not H3808 as they went H1980 .
|
|
12. And their whole body, their backs, their hands, their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes all around, the wheels belonging to all four of them.
|
12. And their whole H3605 body H1320 , and their backs H1354 , and their hands H3027 , and their wings H3671 , and the wheels H212 , were full H4392 of eyes H5869 round about H5439 , even the wheels H212 that they four H702 had.
|
|
13. The wheels were called in my hearing, "the turning wheels."
|
13. As for the wheels H212 , it was cried H7121 unto them in my hearing H241 , O wheel H1534 .
|
|
14. Each one of the cherubim had four faces. The first face was the face of a cherub. The second face was the face of a man. The third was the face of a lion. And the fourth was the face of an eagle.
|
14. And every one H259 had four H702 faces H6440 : the first H259 face H6440 was the face H6440 of a cherub H3742 , and the second H8145 face H6440 was the face H6440 of a man H120 , and the third H7992 the face H6440 of a lion H738 , and the fourth H7243 the face H6440 of an eagle H5404 .
|
|
15. Then the cherubim rose up. They were the living beings that I saw by the Chebar River.
|
15. And the cherubims H3742 were lifted up H7426 . This H1931 is the living creature H2416 that H834 I saw H7200 by the river H5104 of Chebar H3529 .
|
|
16. Now when the cherubim moved, the wheels went beside them. And when the cherubim lifted up their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not leave their side.
|
16. And when the cherubims H3742 went H1980 , the wheels H212 went H1980 by H681 them : and when the cherubims H3742 lifted up H5375 H853 their wings H3671 to mount up H7311 from H4480 H5921 the earth H776 , the same H1992 wheels H212 also H1571 turned H5437 not H3808 from beside H4480 H681 them.
|
|
17. When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still. When they rose up, the wheels rose with them. For the spirit of the living beings was in them.
|
17. When they stood H5975 , these stood H5975 ; and when they were lifted up H7311 , these lifted up H7426 themselves also : for H3588 the spirit H7307 of the living creature H2416 was in them.
|
|
18. Then the shining-greatness of the Lord left the door of the Lord's house and stood over the cherubim.
|
18. Then the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 departed H3318 from off H4480 H5921 the threshold H4670 of the house H1004 , and stood H5975 over H5921 the cherubims H3742 .
|
|
19. When the cherubim left, they lifted their wings and rose up from the earth in front of my eyes, with the wheels beside them. And they stood still at the door of the east gate of the Lord's house. The shining-greatness of the God of Israel was over them.
|
19. And the cherubims H3742 lifted up H5375 H853 their wings H3671 , and mounted up H7426 from H4480 the earth H776 in my sight H5869 : when they went out H3318 , the wheels H212 also were beside H5980 them , and every one stood H5975 at the door H6607 of the east H6931 gate H8179 of the LORD H3068 's house H1004 ; and the glory H3519 of the God H430 of Israel H3478 was over H5921 them above H4480 H4605 .
|
|
20. These are the living beings that I saw under the God of Israel by the Chebar River, so I knew that they were cherubim.
|
20. This H1931 is the living creature H2416 that H834 I saw H7200 under H8478 the God H430 of Israel H3478 by the river H5104 of Chebar H3529 ; and I knew H3045 that H3588 they H1992 were the cherubims H3742 .
|
|
21. Each one had four faces and four wings, and under their wings were what looked like human hands.
|
21. Every one H259 had four faces apiece H702 H702 H6440 , and every one H259 four H702 wings H3671 ; and the likeness H1823 of the hands H3027 of a man H120 was under H8478 their wings H3671 .
|
|
22. Their faces looked the same as those I had seen by the Chebar River. Each one went straight ahead.
|
22. And the likeness H1823 of their faces H6440 was the same H1992 faces H6440 which H834 I saw H7200 by H5921 the river H5104 of Chebar H3529 , their appearances H4758 and themselves : they went H1980 every one H376 straight forward H413 H5676 H6440 .
