17. When the cherubim stopped, the wheels stopped. When they flew upward, the wheels rose up, for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.
18. Then the glory of the lord moved out from the entrance of the Temple and hovered above the cherubim.
19. And as I watched, the cherubim flew with their wheels to the east gate of the lord’s Temple. And the glory of the God of Israel hovered above them.
20. These were the same living beings I had seen beneath the God of Israel when I was by the Kebar River. I knew they were cherubim,
21. for each had four faces and four wings and what looked like human hands under their wings.
22. And their faces were just like the faces of the beings I had seen at the Kebar, and they traveled straight ahead, just as the others had.
