Ezekiel

Chapter 1

1 Now it came1961 to pass in the thirtieth7970 year,8141 in the fourth7243 month, in the fifth2568 day of the month,2320 as I was among8432 the captives1473 by the river5104 of Chebar,3529 that the heavens8064 were opened,6605 and I saw7200 visions4759 of God.430

2 In the fifth2568 day of the month,2320 which1958 was the fifth2549 year8141 of king4428 Jehoiachin's3112 captivity,1546

3 The word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 expressly to Ezekiel3168 the priest,3548 the son1121 of Buzi,941 in the land776 of the Chaldeans3779 by the river5104 Chebar;3529 and the hand3027 of the LORD3068 was there8033 on him.

4 And I looked,7200 and, behold,2009 a whirlwind7307 5591 came935 out of the north,6828 a great1419 cloud,6051 and a fire784 enfolding3947 itself, and a brightness5051 was about5439 it, and out of the middle8432 thereof as the color5869 of amber,2830 out of the middle8432 of the fire.784

5 Also out of the middle8432 thereof came the likeness1823 of four702 living2416 creatures.2416 And this2088 was their appearance;4758 they had the likeness1823 of a man.120

6 And every one259 had four702 faces,6440 and every one259 had four702 wings.3671

7 And their feet7272 were straight3474 feet;7272 and the sole3709 of their feet7272 was like the sole3709 of a calf's5695 foot:7272 and they sparkled5340 like the color5869 of burnished7044 brass.5178

8 And they had the hands3027 of a man120 under8478 their wings3671 on5921 their four702 sides;7253 and they four702 had their faces6440 and their wings.3671

9 Their wings3671 were joined2266 one802 to another;269 they turned5437 not when they went;3212 they went3212 every376 one376 straight5676 forward.6440

10 As for the likeness1823 of their faces,6440 they four702 had the face6440 of a man,120 and the face6440 of a lion,738 on413 the right3225 side:3225 and they four702 had the face6440 of an ox7794 on the left8040 side;8040 they four702 also had the face6440 of an eagle.5404

11 Thus were their faces:6440 and their wings3671 were stretched6504 upward;4605 two8147 wings of every376 one376 were joined2266 one376 to another,376 and two8147 covered3680 their bodies.1472

12 And they went3212 every376 one376 straight5676 forward:6440 where834 8033 the spirit7307 was to go,3212 they went;3212 and they turned5437 not when they went.3212

13 As for the likeness1823 of the living2416 creatures,2416 their appearance4758 was like burning1197 coals1513 of fire,784 and like the appearance4758 of lamps:3940 it went1980 up and down among996 the living2416 creatures;2416 and the fire784 was bright,5051 and out of the fire784 went3318 forth3318 lightning.1300

14 And the living2416 creatures2416 ran7519 and returned7725 as the appearance4758 of a flash965 of lightning.965

15 Now as I beheld7200 the living2416 creatures,2416 behold2009 one259 wheel212 on the earth776 by the living2416 creatures,2416 with his four702 faces.6440

16 The appearance4758 of the wheels212 and their work4639 was like to the color5869 of a beryl:8658 and they four702 had one259 likeness:1823 and their appearance4758 and their work4639 was as it were a wheel212 in the middle8432 of a wheel.212

17 When they went,3212 they went3212 on their four702 sides:7253 and they turned5437 not when they went.3212

18 As for their rings,1354 they were so high1362 that they were dreadful;3374 and their rings1354 were full4392 of eyes5869 round5439 about them four.702

19 And when the living2416 creatures2416 went,3212 the wheels212 went3212 by them: and when the living2416 creatures2416 were lifted5375 up from the earth,776 the wheels212 were lifted5375 up.

20 Wherever5921 the spirit7307 was to go,3212 they went,3212 thither8033 was their spirit7307 to go;3212 and the wheels212 were lifted5375 up over5980 against5980 them: for the spirit7307 of the living2416 creature2416 was in the wheels.212

21 When those went,3212 these went;3212 and when those stood,5975 these stood;5975 and when those were lifted5375 up from the earth,776 the wheels212 were lifted5375 up over5980 against5980 them: for the spirit7307 of the living2416 creature2416 was in the wheels.212

22 And the likeness1823 of the firmament7549 on the heads7218 of the living2416 creature2416 was as the color5869 of the terrible3372 crystal,7140 stretched5186 forth over5921 their heads7218 above.4605

23 And under8478 the firmament7549 were their wings3671 straight,3474 the one802 toward413 the other:269 every376 one376 had two,8147 which covered3680 on this2007 side, and every376 one376 had two,8147 which covered3680 on that side, their bodies.1472

24 And when they went,3212 I heard8085 the noise6963 of their wings,3671 like the noise6963 of great7227 waters,4325 as the voice6963 of the Almighty,7706 the voice6963 of speech,1999 as the noise6963 of an host:4264 when they stood,5975 they let7503 down7503 their wings.3671

25 And there was a voice6963 from the firmament7549 that was over5921 their heads,7218 when they stood,5975 and had let7503 down7503 their wings.3671

26 And above4605 the firmament7549 that was over5921 their heads7218 was the likeness1823 of a throne,3678 as the appearance4758 of a sapphire5601 stone:68 and on the likeness1823 of the throne3678 was the likeness1823 as the appearance4758 of a man120 above4605 on it.

27 And I saw7200 as the color5869 of amber,2830 as the appearance4758 of fire784 round5439 about within1004 it, from the appearance4758 of his loins4975 even upward,4605 and from the appearance4758 of his loins4975 even downward,4295 I saw7200 as it were the appearance4758 of fire,784 and it had brightness5051 round5439 about.

28 As the appearance4758 of the bow7198 that is in the cloud6051 in the day3117 of rain,1653 so3651 was the appearance4758 of the brightness5051 round5439 about. This1931 was the appearance4758 of the likeness1823 of the glory3519 of the LORD.3068 And when I saw7200 it, I fell5307 on my face,6440 and I heard8085 a voice6963 of one that spoke.1696

Ezekiel

Chapter 1

1 NOW it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.

2 On the fifth day of the month, in the fifth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah,

3 The word of the LORD carne to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon me.

4 And I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud, and a flaming fire and a brightness was round about it, and out of the midst of it there came as it were a figure out of the midst of the fire.

5 Also out of the midst of it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.

6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

7 And their legs were straight; and the soles of their feet were like the soles of a calf's feet; and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass.

8 And they had human hands under their wings on their four sides; and their faces and their wings were on their four sides.

9 Their wings were joined one to another; and when they went, they went straight forward; they turned not when they went.

10 And as for the likeness of their faces, each of the four had the face of a man and the face of a lion on the right side; and each of the four had the face of an ox and the face of an eagle on the left side.

11 And their faces and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of each creature were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

12 And they went every one straight forward; wherever the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.

13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of a lamp going to and fro among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

14 And the living creatures ran, but returned not, and their appearance was like a flash of lightning.

15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold wheels were upon the earth by the side of each of the four living creatures.

16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like the colour of a beryl; and they four had the one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.

17 When they went, they went upon four sides; and they turned not when they went; and wherever the first one turned to go, the other went after it, and turned not.

18 As for their rims, they were high and they could see; for the rims were full of eyes round about them four.

19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went with them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the ground, the wheels were lifted up with them.

20 Wheresoever the spirit was to go, they went, and the wheels were lifted up with them; for there was a living spirit in the wheels.

21 When the living creatures went, the wheels went; and when the creatures stood, they stood also; and when they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up with them; for there was a living spirit in the wheels.

22 And over the heads of the living creatures there was the likeness of a firmament, resembling pure crystal, stretched out over their heads above.

23 And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other; over and under; two of them covering their faces and two covering their bodies.

24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of God, like the sound of speech in a host; and when they stopped, they let down their wings.

25 And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads; and when they stopped, they let down their wings.

26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a sapphire stone, as the likeness of a throne; and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above it.

27 And I saw as it were the appearance of God, and the appearance of fire within it round about from his loins and upward; and from his loins and downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire shining round about.

28 As the appearance of the rainbow when it is in the clouds in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about him. Such was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face and I heard the voice of one who spoke.

Chapter 1

1 Now it came1961 to pass in the thirtieth7970 year,8141 in the fourth7243 month, in the fifth2568 day of the month,2320 as I was among8432 the captives1473 by the river5104 of Chebar,3529 that the heavens8064 were opened,6605 and I saw7200 visions4759 of God.430

1 NOW it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.

2 In the fifth2568 day of the month,2320 which1958 was the fifth2549 year8141 of king4428 Jehoiachin's3112 captivity,1546

2 On the fifth day of the month, in the fifth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah,

3 The word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 expressly to Ezekiel3168 the priest,3548 the son1121 of Buzi,941 in the land776 of the Chaldeans3779 by the river5104 Chebar;3529 and the hand3027 of the LORD3068 was there8033 on him.

3 The word of the LORD carne to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon me.

4 And I looked,7200 and, behold,2009 a whirlwind7307 5591 came935 out of the north,6828 a great1419 cloud,6051 and a fire784 enfolding3947 itself, and a brightness5051 was about5439 it, and out of the middle8432 thereof as the color5869 of amber,2830 out of the middle8432 of the fire.784

4 And I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud, and a flaming fire and a brightness was round about it, and out of the midst of it there came as it were a figure out of the midst of the fire.

5 Also out of the middle8432 thereof came the likeness1823 of four702 living2416 creatures.2416 And this2088 was their appearance;4758 they had the likeness1823 of a man.120

5 Also out of the midst of it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.

6 And every one259 had four702 faces,6440 and every one259 had four702 wings.3671

6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

7 And their feet7272 were straight3474 feet;7272 and the sole3709 of their feet7272 was like the sole3709 of a calf's5695 foot:7272 and they sparkled5340 like the color5869 of burnished7044 brass.5178

7 And their legs were straight; and the soles of their feet were like the soles of a calf's feet; and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass.

8 And they had the hands3027 of a man120 under8478 their wings3671 on5921 their four702 sides;7253 and they four702 had their faces6440 and their wings.3671

8 And they had human hands under their wings on their four sides; and their faces and their wings were on their four sides.

9 Their wings3671 were joined2266 one802 to another;269 they turned5437 not when they went;3212 they went3212 every376 one376 straight5676 forward.6440

9 Their wings were joined one to another; and when they went, they went straight forward; they turned not when they went.

10 As for the likeness1823 of their faces,6440 they four702 had the face6440 of a man,120 and the face6440 of a lion,738 on413 the right3225 side:3225 and they four702 had the face6440 of an ox7794 on the left8040 side;8040 they four702 also had the face6440 of an eagle.5404

10 And as for the likeness of their faces, each of the four had the face of a man and the face of a lion on the right side; and each of the four had the face of an ox and the face of an eagle on the left side.

11 Thus were their faces:6440 and their wings3671 were stretched6504 upward;4605 two8147 wings of every376 one376 were joined2266 one376 to another,376 and two8147 covered3680 their bodies.1472

11 And their faces and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of each creature were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

12 And they went3212 every376 one376 straight5676 forward:6440 where834 8033 the spirit7307 was to go,3212 they went;3212 and they turned5437 not when they went.3212

12 And they went every one straight forward; wherever the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.

13 As for the likeness1823 of the living2416 creatures,2416 their appearance4758 was like burning1197 coals1513 of fire,784 and like the appearance4758 of lamps:3940 it went1980 up and down among996 the living2416 creatures;2416 and the fire784 was bright,5051 and out of the fire784 went3318 forth3318 lightning.1300

13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of a lamp going to and fro among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

14 And the living2416 creatures2416 ran7519 and returned7725 as the appearance4758 of a flash965 of lightning.965

14 And the living creatures ran, but returned not, and their appearance was like a flash of lightning.

15 Now as I beheld7200 the living2416 creatures,2416 behold2009 one259 wheel212 on the earth776 by the living2416 creatures,2416 with his four702 faces.6440

15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold wheels were upon the earth by the side of each of the four living creatures.

16 The appearance4758 of the wheels212 and their work4639 was like to the color5869 of a beryl:8658 and they four702 had one259 likeness:1823 and their appearance4758 and their work4639 was as it were a wheel212 in the middle8432 of a wheel.212

16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like the colour of a beryl; and they four had the one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.

17 When they went,3212 they went3212 on their four702 sides:7253 and they turned5437 not when they went.3212

17 When they went, they went upon four sides; and they turned not when they went; and wherever the first one turned to go, the other went after it, and turned not.

18 As for their rings,1354 they were so high1362 that they were dreadful;3374 and their rings1354 were full4392 of eyes5869 round5439 about them four.702

18 As for their rims, they were high and they could see; for the rims were full of eyes round about them four.

19 And when the living2416 creatures2416 went,3212 the wheels212 went3212 by them: and when the living2416 creatures2416 were lifted5375 up from the earth,776 the wheels212 were lifted5375 up.

19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went with them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the ground, the wheels were lifted up with them.

20 Wherever5921 the spirit7307 was to go,3212 they went,3212 thither8033 was their spirit7307 to go;3212 and the wheels212 were lifted5375 up over5980 against5980 them: for the spirit7307 of the living2416 creature2416 was in the wheels.212

20 Wheresoever the spirit was to go, they went, and the wheels were lifted up with them; for there was a living spirit in the wheels.

21 When those went,3212 these went;3212 and when those stood,5975 these stood;5975 and when those were lifted5375 up from the earth,776 the wheels212 were lifted5375 up over5980 against5980 them: for the spirit7307 of the living2416 creature2416 was in the wheels.212

21 When the living creatures went, the wheels went; and when the creatures stood, they stood also; and when they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up with them; for there was a living spirit in the wheels.

22 And the likeness1823 of the firmament7549 on the heads7218 of the living2416 creature2416 was as the color5869 of the terrible3372 crystal,7140 stretched5186 forth over5921 their heads7218 above.4605

22 And over the heads of the living creatures there was the likeness of a firmament, resembling pure crystal, stretched out over their heads above.

23 And under8478 the firmament7549 were their wings3671 straight,3474 the one802 toward413 the other:269 every376 one376 had two,8147 which covered3680 on this2007 side, and every376 one376 had two,8147 which covered3680 on that side, their bodies.1472

23 And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other; over and under; two of them covering their faces and two covering their bodies.

24 And when they went,3212 I heard8085 the noise6963 of their wings,3671 like the noise6963 of great7227 waters,4325 as the voice6963 of the Almighty,7706 the voice6963 of speech,1999 as the noise6963 of an host:4264 when they stood,5975 they let7503 down7503 their wings.3671

24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of God, like the sound of speech in a host; and when they stopped, they let down their wings.

25 And there was a voice6963 from the firmament7549 that was over5921 their heads,7218 when they stood,5975 and had let7503 down7503 their wings.3671

25 And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads; and when they stopped, they let down their wings.

26 And above4605 the firmament7549 that was over5921 their heads7218 was the likeness1823 of a throne,3678 as the appearance4758 of a sapphire5601 stone:68 and on the likeness1823 of the throne3678 was the likeness1823 as the appearance4758 of a man120 above4605 on it.

26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a sapphire stone, as the likeness of a throne; and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above it.

27 And I saw7200 as the color5869 of amber,2830 as the appearance4758 of fire784 round5439 about within1004 it, from the appearance4758 of his loins4975 even upward,4605 and from the appearance4758 of his loins4975 even downward,4295 I saw7200 as it were the appearance4758 of fire,784 and it had brightness5051 round5439 about.

27 And I saw as it were the appearance of God, and the appearance of fire within it round about from his loins and upward; and from his loins and downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire shining round about.

28 As the appearance4758 of the bow7198 that is in the cloud6051 in the day3117 of rain,1653 so3651 was the appearance4758 of the brightness5051 round5439 about. This1931 was the appearance4758 of the likeness1823 of the glory3519 of the LORD.3068 And when I saw7200 it, I fell5307 on my face,6440 and I heard8085 a voice6963 of one that spoke.1696

28 As the appearance of the rainbow when it is in the clouds in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about him. Such was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face and I heard the voice of one who spoke.
