Ezekiel 1:9-14 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

9. Their wings were touching. The creatures did not turn as they moved; each one went straight ahead.

10. The form of each of their faces was that of a man, and each of the four had the face of a lion on the right, the face of an ox on the left, and the face of an eagle.

11. That is what their faces were like. Their wings were spread upward; each had two wings touching that of another and two wings covering its body.

12. Each creature went straight ahead. Wherever the Spirit wanted to go, they went without turning as they moved.

13. The form of the living creatures was like the appearance of burning coals of fire and torches. Fire was moving back and forth between the living creatures; it was bright, with lightning coming out of it.

14. The creatures were darting back and forth like flashes of lightning.
