6. After He commanded the man clothed in linen saying: “Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cheruvim,” he went in and stood beside a wheel.
7. The cheruv reached out his hand from between the cheruvim into the fire that was between the cheruvim and took some of it. He put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
8. The cheruvim appeared to have the form of a human hand under their wings.
9. Then I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cheruvim, one wheel beside one cheruv, and another wheel beside another cheruv. The appearance of the wheels was like the sparkling of a beryl stone.
10. As for their appearance, the four had one form—like a wheel within a wheel.
11. When they went, they would go in any of their four directions, without pivoting as they went. So to whatever place the head faced, they followed, without turning as they went.
12. Their whole body, their backs, their hands, their wings, and their wheels, the wheels of the four of them, were full of eyes all around.
13. As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing “the whirling wheels.”
14. Each one had four faces: the first face was the face of the cheruv, the second face was the face of a man, the third the face of a lion and the fourth the face of an eagle.
