Ezekiel 1
1. Now it came <01961> to pass in the thirtieth <
07970> year
<08141>, in the fourth <07243> [month], in the fifth
<02568>
[day] of the month <02320>, as I [was] among <08432>
the
captives <01473> by the river <05104> of Chebar <
03529>, [that]
the heavens <08064> were opened <06605>, and I saw
<07200>
visions <04759> of God <0430>.
2 In the fifth <02568> [day] of the month <02320>,
which
<01958> [was] the fifth <02549> year <08141> of
king <04428>
Jehoiachin's <03112> captivity <01546>,
3 The word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came <
01961> expressly
unto Ezekiel <03168> the priest <03548>, the son <
01121> of Buzi
<0941>, in the land <0776> of the Chaldeans <
03779> by the river
<05104> Chebar <03529>; and the hand <03027> of
the LORD <03068>
was there <08033> upon him.
4. And I looked <07200>, and, behold <02009>, a
whirlwind came
<0935> out of the north <06828>, a great <01419>
cloud <06051>,
and a fire <0784> infolding <03947> itself, and a
brightness
<05051> [was] about <05439> it, and out of the midst
<08432>
thereof as the colour <05869> of amber <02830>, out
of the midst
<08432> of the fire <0784>.
5 Also out of the midst <08432> thereof [came] the
likeness
<01823> of four <0702> living <02416> creatures
<02416>. And
this <02088> [was] their appearance <04758>; they had
the
likeness <01823> of a man <0120>.
6 And every one <0259> had four <0702> faces <
06440>, and every
one <0259> had four <0702> wings <03671>.
7 And their feet <07272> [were] straight <03474>
feet <07272>;
and the sole <03709> of their feet <07272> [was] like
the sole
<03709> of a calf's <05695> foot <07272>: and
they sparkled
<05340> like the colour <05869> of burnished <
07044> brass
<05178>.
8 And [they had] the hands <03027> of a man <0120>
under
<08478> their wings <03671> on <05921> their
four <0702> sides
<07253>; and they four <0702> had their faces <
06440> and their
wings <03671>.
9 Their wings <03671> [were] joined <02266> one <
0802> to
another <0269>; they turned <05437> not when they
went <03212>;
they went <03212> every <0376> one <0376>
straight <05676>
forward <06440>.
10 As for the likeness <01823> of their faces <06440>
, they
four <0702> had the face <06440> of a man <0120>
, and the face
<06440> of a lion <0738>, on <0413> the right
<03225> side
<03225>: and they four <0702> had the face <
06440> of an ox
<07794> on the left <08040> side <08040>; they
four <0702> also
had the face <06440> of an eagle <05404>.
11 Thus [were] their faces <06440>: and their wings <
03671>
[were] stretched <06504> upward <04605>; two <
08147> [wings] of
every <0376> one <0376> [were] joined <02266>
one <0376> to
another <0376>, and two <08147> covered <03680>
their bodies
<01472>.
12 And they went <03212> every <0376> one <
0376> straight
<05676> forward <06440>: whither the spirit <
07307> was to go
<03212>, they went <03212>; [and] they turned <
05437> not when
they went <03212>.
13 As for the likeness <01823> of the living <02416>
creatures
<02416>, their appearance <04758> [was] like burning
<01197>
coals <01513> of fire <0784>, [and] like the
appearance <04758>
of lamps <03940>: it went <01980> up and down among
<0996> the
living <02416> creatures <02416>; and the fire <
0784> was bright
<05051>, and out of the fire <0784> went <03318>
forth <03318>
lightning <01300>.
14 And the living <02416> creatures <02416> ran <
07519> and
returned <07725> as the appearance <04758> of a flash
<0965> of
lightning <0965>.
15. Now as I beheld <07200> the living <02416>
creatures
<02416>, behold <02009> one <0259> wheel <
0212> upon the earth
<0776> by the living <02416> creatures <02416>,
with his four
<0702> faces <06440>.
16 The appearance <04758> of the wheels <0212> and
their work
<04639> [was] like unto the colour <05869> of a beryl
<08658>:
and they four <0702> had one <0259> likeness <
01823>: and their
appearance <04758> and their work <04639> [was] as it
were a
wheel <0212> in the middle <08432> of a wheel <
0212>.
17 When they went <03212>, they went <03212> upon
their four
<0702> sides <07253>: [and] they turned <05437>
not when they
went <03212>.
18 As for their rings <01354>, they were so high <
01362> that
they were dreadful <03374>; and their rings <01354>
[were] full
<04392> of eyes <05869> round <05439> about
them four <0702>.
19 And when the living <02416> creatures <02416>
went <03212>,
the wheels <0212> went <03212> by them: and when the
living
<02416> creatures <02416> were lifted <05375>
up from the earth
<0776>, the wheels <0212> were lifted <05375>
up.
20 Whithersoever the spirit <07307> was to go <03212>
, they
went <03212>, thither <08033> [was their] spirit <
07307> to go
<03212>; and the wheels <0212> were lifted <
05375> up over
<05980> against <05980> them: for the spirit <
07307> of the
living <02416> creature <02416> [was] in the wheels
<0212>.
21 When those went <03212>, [these] went <03212>;
and when
those stood <05975>, [these] stood <05975>; and when
those were
lifted <05375> up from the earth <0776>, the wheels
<0212> were
lifted <05375> up over <05980> against <05980>
them: for the
spirit <07307> of the living <02416> creature <
02416> [was] in
the wheels <0212>.
22 And the likeness <01823> of the firmament <07549>
upon the
heads <07218> of the living <02416> creature <
02416> [was] as
the colour <05869> of the terrible <03372> crystal
<07140>,
stretched <05186> forth over <05921> their heads <
07218> above
<04605>.
23 And under <08478> the firmament <07549> [were]
their wings
<03671> straight <03474>, the one <0802> toward
<0413> the other
<0269>: every <0376> one <0376> had two <
08147>, which covered
<03680> on this <02007> side, and every <0376>
one <0376> had
two <08147>, which covered <03680> on that side,
their bodies
<01472>.
24 And when they went <03212>, I heard <08085> the
noise
<06963> of their wings <03671>, like the noise <
06963> of great
<07227> waters <04325>, as the voice <06963> of
the Almighty
<07706>, the voice <06963> of speech <01999>,
as the noise
<06963> of an host <04264>: when they stood <
05975>, they let
<07503> down <07503> their wings <03671>.
25 And there was a voice <06963> from the firmament <
07549>
that [was] over <05921> their heads <07218>, when
they stood
<05975>, [and] had let <07503> down <07503>
their wings <03671>.
26. And above <04605> the firmament <07549> that
[was] over
<05921> their heads <07218> [was] the likeness <
01823> of a
throne <03678>, as the appearance <04758> of a
sapphire <05601>
stone <068>: and upon the likeness <01823> of the
throne <03678>
[was] the likeness <01823> as the appearance <04758>
of a man
<0120> above <04605> upon it.
27 And I saw <07200> as the colour <05869> of amber
<02830>, as
the appearance <04758> of fire <0784> round <
05439> about within
<01004> it, from the appearance <04758> of his loins
<04975>
even upward <04605>, and from the appearance <04758>
of his
loins <04975> even downward <04295>, I saw <
07200> as it were
the appearance <04758> of fire <0784>, and it had
brightness
<05051> round <05439> about.
28 As the appearance <04758> of the bow <07198> that
is in the
cloud <06051> in the day <03117> of rain <01653>
, so <03651>
[was] the appearance <04758> of the brightness <05051>
round
<05439> about. This <01931> [was] the appearance <
04758> of the
likeness <01823> of the glory <03519> of the LORD <
03068>. And
when I saw <07200> [it], I fell <05307> upon my face
<06440>,
and I heard <08085> a voice <06963> of one that spake
<01696>.
Ezekiel 2
1. And he said <0559> unto me, Son <01121> of man
<0120>, stand
<05975> upon thy feet <07272>, and I will speak <
01696> unto
thee.
2 And the spirit <07307> entered <0935> into me when
<0834> he
spake <01696> unto me, and set <05975> me upon my
feet <07272>,
that I heard <08085> him that spake <01696> unto me.
3 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <01121> of man <
0120>, I send
<07971> thee to the children <01121> of Israel <
03478>, to a
rebellious <04775> nation <01471> that hath rebelled
<04775>
against me: they and their fathers <01> have transgressed
<06586> against me, [even] unto this <02088> very <
06106> day
<03117>.
4 For [they are] impudent children <01121> and
stiffhearted. I
do send <07971> thee unto them; and thou shalt say <
0559> unto
them, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <03069>.
