21. When the creatures moved, the wheels also moved. When the creatures stood still, they also stood still. When the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them. That's because the spirits of the living creatures were in the wheels.
22. Something that looked like a huge space was spread out above the heads of the living creatures. It gleamed like ice. It was terrifying.
23. The wings of the creatures were spread out under the space. They reached out toward one another. Each creature had two wings covering its body.
24. When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings. It was like the roar of rushing waters. It sounded like the thundering voice of the Mighty One. It was like the loud noise an army makes. When the creatures stood still, they lowered their wings.
25. Then a voice came from above the huge space over their heads. They stood with their wings lowered.
26. Above the space over their heads was something that looked like a throne made out of sapphire. On the throne high above was a figure that appeared to be human.
27. From his waist up he looked like glowing metal that was full of fire. From his waist down he looked like fire. Bright light surrounded him.
