10. But as for the likeness of their face, there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right of each of the four, then the face of an ox on the left of each of the four, and the face of an eagle above each of the four.
11. Their faces and their wings were extended above: two wings of each one were joined together, and two covered their bodies.
12. And each one of them advanced before his face. Wherever the impetus of the spirit was to go, there they went. And they did not turn as they advanced.
13. And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like that of burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps. This was the vision dashing in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, with lightning going forth from the fire.
14. And the living creatures went and returned like flashes of lightning.
15. And as I beheld the living creatures, there appeared above the earth, next to the living creatures, one wheel having four faces.
16. And the appearance of the wheels and their work was like the appearance of the sea. And each of the four were similar to one another. And their appearance and work was like a wheel in the center of a wheel.
17. Going forth, they went by means of their four parts. And they did not turn as they went.
18. Also, the size and height and appearance of the wheels was dreadful. And the entire body was full of eyes all around each of the four.
19. And when the living creatures advanced, the wheels advanced together with them. And when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels, too, were lifted up at the same time.
20. Wherever the spirit went, as the spirit was going forth to that place, the wheels, too, were lifted up together, so as to follow them. For the spirit of life was in the wheels.
21. When going forth, they went forth, and when standing still, they stood still. And when they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels, too, were lifted up together, so as to follow them. For the spirit of life was in the wheels.
22. And above the heads of the living creatures was the likeness of a firmament: similar to crystal, but dreadful to behold, and extending over their heads from above.
23. And their wings were straight under the firmament, one toward the other. One of them was covered by two wings on his body, and the other was covered similarly.
