Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:1 -

Now it came H1961 about H1961 in the thirtieth H7970 year H8141, on the fifth H2568 day of the fourth H7243 month H2320, while I was by the river H5104 Chebar H3529 among H8432 the exiles H1473, the heavens H8064 were opened H6605 and I saw H7200 [fn]visions H4759 of God H430.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:2 - (On the fifth H2568 of the month H2320 [fn]in the fifth H2549 year H8141 of King H4428 Jehoiachin’s H3078 exile H1546,

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:4 -

As I looked H7200, behold H2009, a high H5591 wind H7307 was coming H935 from the north H6828, a great H1419 cloud H6051 with fire H784 flashing H3947 intermittently H3947 and a bright H5051 light H5051 around H5439 it, and in its midst H8432 something like gleaming H5869 [fn]metal H2830 in the midst H8432 of the fire H784.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:5 - And within H8432 it there were figures H1823 resembling H1823 four H702 living H2416 beings H2416. And this H2088 was their appearance H4758: they had human H120 form H1823.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:6 - Each H259 of them had four H702 faces H6440 and four H702 wings H3671.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:8 - Under H8478 their wings H3671 on their four H702 sides H7253 were human H120 hands H3027. As for the faces H6440 and wings H3671 of the four H702 of them,
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:9 - their wings H3671 touched H2266 one H802 another H269; their faces did not turn H5437 when they moved H1980, each H376 went H1980 straight H413 H5676 H6440 forward H6440.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:10 - As for the form H1823 of their faces H6440, each had a human H120 face H6440; [fn]all four H702 had the face H6440 of a lion H738 on the right H3225 and the face H6440 of a bull H7794 on the left H8040, and [fn]all four H702 had the face H6440 of an eagle H5404.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:11 - Such were their faces H6440. Their wings H3671 were spread H6504 out H6504 above H4480 H4605; each H376 had two H8147 touching H2266 another H376 being, and two H8147 covering H3680 their bodies H1472.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:12 - And each H376 went H1980 straight H413 H5676 H6440 forward H6440; wherever H413 H834 H8033 the spirit H7307 was about to go H1980, they would go H1980, without H3808 turning H5437 as they went H1980.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:13 - [fn]In the midst of the living H2416 beings H2416 there was something that looked H4758 like burning H1197 coals H1513 of fire H784, [fn]like H4758 torches H3940 moving H1980 among H996 the living H2416 beings H2416.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:14 - And the living H2416 beings H2416 ran H7519 back H7725 and forth H7725 like H4758 bolts H965 of H965 lightning H965.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:15 -

Now as I looked H7200 at the living H2416 beings H2416, behold H2009, there was one H259 wheel H212 on the ground H776 beside H681 the living H2416 beings H2416, for [fn]each of the four H702 of them.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:16 - The appearance H4758 of the wheels H212 and their workmanship H4639 was like [fn]sparkling H5869 topaz H8658, and all four H702 of them had the same H259 form H1823, their appearance H4758 and workmanship H4639 being as if H834 [fn]one wheel H212 were within H8432 another H212.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:17 - Whenever they [fn]moved H1980, they [fn]moved H1980 in any of their four H702 [fn]directions H7253 without H3808 turning H5437 as they [fn]moved H1980.

Vision of Divine Glory

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:22 -

Now over H5921 the heads H7218 of the living H2416 [fn]beings H2416 there was something like H1823 an expanse H7549, like the awesome H3372 gleam H5869 of crystal H7140, spread H5186 out H5186 over H5921 H4605 their heads H7218.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:23 - Under H8478 the expanse H7549 their wings H3671 were stretched out straight H3477, one H802 toward H413 the other H269; each H376 one H376 also had two H8147 wings covering H3680 its body H1472 on the one H2008 side H2008 and on the other H2008.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:24 - And I also heard H8085 the sound H6963 of their wings H3671, like the sound H6963 of abundant H7227 waters H4325 as they went H1980, like the voice H6963 of [fn]the Almighty H7706, a sound H6963 of a crowd H1999 like the sound H6963 of an army H4264 camp H4264; whenever they stopped H5975, they let H7503 down H7503 their wings H3671.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:25 - And a voice H6963 came H1961 from above H5921 the expanse H7549 that was over H5921 their heads H7218; whenever they stood H5975 still H5975, they let H7503 down H7503 their wings H3671.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:26 -

Now above H4480 H4605 the expanse H7549 that was over H5921 their heads H7218 there was something H1823 resembling H1823 a throne H3678, like [fn]lapis H68 H5601 lazuli H68 H5601 in appearance H4758; and on that which H1823 resembled H1823 a throne H3678, high H4480 H4605 up, was a figure H1823 with the appearance H4758 of a man H120.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:27 - Then I [fn]noticed H7200 from the appearance H4758 of His waist H4975 and upward H4605 something like gleaming H5869 [fn]metal H2830 that looked H4758 like fire H784 all H5439 around H5439 within H1004 it, and from the appearance H4758 of His waist H4975 and downward H4295 I saw H7200 something H4758 like fire H784; and there was a radiance H5051 around H5439 Him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEze 1:28 - Like the appearance H4758 of the rainbow H7198 [fn]in the clouds H6051 on a rainy H1653 day H3117, so H3651 was the appearance H4758 of the surrounding H5439 radiance H5051. Such H1931 was the appearance H4758 of the likeness H1823 of the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068. And when I saw H7200 it, I fell H5307 on my face H6440 and heard H8085 a voice H6963 speaking H1696.
