Ezekiel 1:23

Compare all

21 When those went, these went; when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up together with them, for the spirit of the¹ living creatures was in the wheels.

22 ^aThe likeness of the¹ firmament above the heads of the² living creatures was like the color of an awesome ^bcrystal, stretched out ^cover their heads.

23 And under the firmament their wings spread out straight, one toward another. Each one had two which covered one side, and each one had two which covered the other side of the body.

24 ^aWhen they went, I heard the noise of their wings, ^blike the noise of many waters, like ^cthe voice of the Almighty, a tumult like the noise of an army; and when they stood still, they let down their wings.

25 A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.

Ezekiel 1:23

Every one had two, which covered on this side - While they employed two of their wings to form a foundation for the firmament to rest on, two other wings were let down to cover the lower part of their bodies: but this they did only when they stood, Ezekiel 1:24.
