Esekiel 1,12

God's holiness

10 Deres ansikter var slik: hver hadde et menneskeansikt, et løveansikt på høyre side, et okseansikt på venstre side, og et ørneansikt.

11 Slik var deres ansikter. Deres vinger var utstrakt oppover; hver hadde to vinger som rørte ved en annen skapning og to som dekket deres kropper.

Hver gikk rett frem; hvor ånden ville gå, gikk de, uten å snu seg når de gikk.

13 Utseendet til de levende skapningene var som brennende kull av ild, som fakler. Ild beveget seg blant skapningene, og lyn blinket fra den.

14 Skapningene fór frem og tilbake som lyn.
