9. I looked, and there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The luster of the wheels was like the gleam of beryl.
10. In appearance, all four had the same form, like a wheel within a wheel.
11. When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions, without pivoting as they moved. But wherever the head faced, they would go in that direction, without pivoting as they went.
12. Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, wings, and the wheels that the four of them had, were full of eyes all around.
13. As I listened the wheels were called “the wheelwork.”
14. Each one had four faces: the first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
15. The cherubim ascended; these were the living creatures I had seen by the Chebar Canal.
16. When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and when they lifted their wings to rise from the earth, even then the wheels did not veer away from them.
17. When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.
