Ezekiel - Chapter: 1

>
1:1Now it came to passe in the thirtieth yeere, in the fourth moneth, in the fifth day of the moneth, (as I was among the captiues by the riuer of Chebar) that the heauens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
1:2In the fifth day of the moneth, (which was the fifth yeere of king Iehoiakins captiuitie,)
1:3The word of the Lord came expresly vnto Ezekiel the Priest, the sonne of Buzi, in the land of the Caldeans, by the riuer Chebar, and the hand of the Lord was there vpon him.
1:4And I looked, and behold, a whirlewinde came out of the North, a great cloude, and a fire infoulding it selfe, and a brightnesse was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
1:5Also out of the midst thereof came the likenesse of foure liuing creatures, and this was their appearance: they had the likenesse of a man.
1:6And euery one had foure faces, and euery one had foure wings.
1:7And their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calues foot, and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brasse.
1:8And they had the handes of a man vnder their wings on their foure sides, and they foure had their faces and their wings.
1:9Their wings were ioyned one to another, they turned not when they went: they went euery one straight forward.
1:10As for the likenesse of their faces, they foure had the face of a man, and the face of a lyon on the right side, and they foure had the face of an oxe on the left side: they foure also had the face of an eagle.
1:11Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched vpward, two wings of euery one were ioyned one to an other, and two couered their bodies.
1:12And they went euery one straight forward: whither the spirit was to goe, they went: and they turned not when they went.
1:13As for the likenesse of the liuing creatures, their appearance was like burning coles of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went vp and downe among the liuing creatures, and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went foorth lightning.
1:14And the liuing creatures ranne, and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
1:15Now as I behelde the liuing creatures: behold one wheele vpon the earth by the liuing creatures, with his foure faces.
1:16The appearance of the wheeles, and their worke was like vnto the colour of a Berill: and they foure had one likenesse, and their appearance and their worke was as it were a wheele in the middle of a wheele.
1:17When they went, they went vpon their foure sides: and they returned not when they went.
1:18As for their rings, they were so high, that they were dreadful, and their rings were full of eyes round about them foure.
1:19And when the liuing creatures went, the wheeles went by them: and when the liuing creatures were lift vp from the earth, the wheels were lift vp.
1:20Whithersoeuer the spirit was to goe, they went, thither was their spirit to goe, and the wheeles were lifted vp ouer against them: for the spirit of the liuing creature was in the wheeles.
1:21When those went, these went, and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted vp from the earth, the wheeles were lifted vp ouer against them: for the spirit of the liuing creature was in the wheeles.
1:22And the likenesse of the firmament vpon the heads of the liuing creature was as the colour of the terrible chrystall, stretched foorth ouer their heads aboue.
1:23And vnder the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other, euery one had two which couered on this side, & euery one had two, which couered on that side their bodies.
1:24And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almightie, the voice of speech, as the noise of an hoste: when they stood, they let downe their wings.
1:25And there was a voice from the firmament, that was ouer their heads, when they stood, and had let downe their wings.
1:26And aboue the firmament that was ouer their heads, was the likenesse of a Throne, as the appearance of a Saphyre stone, and vpon the likenesse of the Throne was the likenesse as the appearance of a man aboue vpon it.
1:27And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it: from the appearance of his loynes euen vpward, and from the appearance of his loynes euen downeward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, & it had brightnesse round about.
1:28As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloude in the day of raine, so was the appearance of the brightnesse round about. This was the appearance of the likenesse of the glory of the Lord: and when I saw it, I fell vpon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.

 

1:1It came to passe in the thirtith yere in the fourth moneth in the fifth day of the moneth, that (I beyng in the middes of the captiuitie, by the riuer Chebar) the heauens were opened, and I sawe visions of God
1:2In the fifth day of the moneth, which was the fifth yere of kyng Ioakins captiuitie
1:3The worde of the Lorde came to Ezechiel the priest the sonne of Buzi, in the lande of the Chaldeans by the riuer Chebar, where the hand of the Lord was vpon hym

1:5And out of the middes therof, the likenesse of foure beastes appeared and this was their fourme, they had the likenesse of a man
1:6And euery one had foure faces, and euery one of them had foure wynges
1:7Their feete were straight feete, and the sole of their feete lyke the sole of calues feete, and they glistered as the appearaunce of brasse burnished
1:8From vnder their wynges vpon all the foure corners they had mens handes: and they foure had their faces and their wynges
1:9Their wynges were ioyned one to another: when they went they looked not backe, but eche one went straight forwarde
1:10But touching the similitude of their faces, they foure had the face of a man and the face of a lion on the right side, and they foure had the face of an oxe on the left side, the foure also had the face of an Egle
1:11Thus were their faces, and their winges were spread out aboue, so that two wynges of euery one were ioyned one to another, and two wynges couered euery one of their bodyes
1:12Euery one went straight forward: whyther as the spirite led them, thither thei went, & returned not in their going
1:13And the fashion of the beastes, their appearaunce was lyke coales of fire, burning like the appearaunce of cressets, it ran among the beastes, and the fire gaue a glister, and out of the fire there went lightening
1:14And the beastes ranne, and returned like lightening
1:15When I had considered the beastes, beholde a wheele vpon the earth nye to the beastes, to euery of the foure before his face

1:19When the beastes went, the wheeles went also by them: and when the beastes were lift vp from the earth, the wheeles were lyft vp
1:20Whyther soeuer the spirite was to go, they went, and thyther was the spirite to go, and the wheeles were lyft vp before them: for the spirite of the beastes were in the wheeles
1:21When the beastes went, they went, & when thei stoode, they stoode, and when they were lifted vp from the earth, the wheeles were lifted vp before the, for ye spirite of ye beastes was in the wheeles
1:22And the similitude of the firmament vpon the heades of the beastes, was like the colour of christall wonderfull, spread ouer their heades aboue
1:23And vnder the firmament their winges were stretcht foorth one towardes another, euery one had two couering them, and euery one had two couering them, euen their bodyes
1:24And when they went, I hearde the noyse of their wynges, lyke the noyse of great waters, as it had ben the voyce of the almightie, the voyce of speache, as the noyse of an hoast: when they stoode, they let downe their winges
1:25And there was a noyse from aboue the firmament that was ouer their heades: when they stoode, they let downe their wynges
1:26And aboue the firmament that was ouer their heades, there was the fashion of a throne lyke a Saphir stone: and vpon the similitude of the throne by appearaunce, as the similitude of a man aboue vpon it
1:27And I sawe as the appearaunce of amber and as the similitude of fire rounde about within, from the appearaunce of his loynes vpward: and from the appearaunce of his loynes downewarde I sawe as the lykenesse of fire, and brightnesse rounde about it
1:28As the likenesse of a bowe that is in a cloude in a raynie day, so was the appearaunce of the brightnesse rounde about: this was the appearaunce of the similitude of the glory of God, & when I sawe it, I fell vpon my face and hearkened vnto the voyce of one that spake

 

1:1It came to passe in the thirtieth yere in the fourth moneth, and in the fift day of the moneth (as I was among the captiues by the riuer Chebar) that the heauens were opened and I sawe visions of GOD.
1:2In the fift day of the moneth (which was the fift yere of King Ioiachins captiuitie)
1:3The word of the Lord came vnto Ezekiel the Priest, the sonne of Buzi, in the lande of the Caldeans, by the riuer Chebar, where the hande of the Lord was vpon him.
1:4And I looked, and beholde, a whirlewinde came out of the North, a great cloude and a fire wrapped about it, and a brightnesse was about it, and in the middes thereof, to wit, in the middes of the fire came out as the likenesse of amber.
1:5Also out of the middes therof came the likenesse of foure beastes, and this was their forme: they had the appearance of a man.
1:6And euery one had foure faces, and euery one had foure wings.
1:7And their feete were streight feete, and the sole of their feete was like the sole of a calues foote, and they sparkled like the appearance of bright brasse.
1:8And the handes of a man came out from vnder their wings in the foure parts of them, and they foure had their faces, and their wings.

1:10And the similitude of their faces was as the face of a man: and they foure had the face of a lyon on the right side, and they foure had the face of a bullocke on the left side: they foure also had the face of an eagle.
1:11Thus were their faces: but their wings were spred out aboue: two wings of euery one were ioined one to another, and two couered their bodies.
1:12And euery one went streight forward: they went whither their spirit led them, and they returned not when they went forth.
1:13The similitude also of the beasts, and their appearance was like burning coles of fire, and like the appearance of lampes: for the fire ran among the beastes, and the fire gaue a glister, and out of the fire there went lightning.
1:14And the beastes ranne, and returned like vnto lightning.
1:15Nowe as I behelde the beastes, beholde, a wheele appeared vpon the earth by the beastes, hauing foure faces.
1:16The facion of the wheeles and their worke was like vnto a chrysolite: and they foure had one forme, and their facion, and their worke was as one wheele in another wheele.
1:17Whe they went, they went vpon their foure sides, and they returned not when they went.
1:18They had also rings, and height, and were fearefull to beholde, and their rings were full of eyes, round about them foure.
1:19And when the beastes went, the wheeles went with them: and when the beasts were lift vp from the earth, the wheeles were lift vp.

1:23And vnder the firmament were their wings streight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which couered the, and euery one had two, which couered their bodies.
1:24And when they went foorth, I heard the noyse of their wings, like the noyse of great waters, and as the voyce of the Almightie, euen the voyce of speach, as the noyse of an host: and when they stood, they let downe their wings.
1:25And there was a voyce from the firmament, that was ouer their heads, when they stoode, and had let downe their wings.
1:26And aboue the firmament that was ouer their heads, was the facion of a throne like vnto a saphir stone, and vpon the similitude of the throne was by appearance, as the similitude of a man aboue vpon it.
1:27And I sawe as the appearance of amber, and as the similitude of fire round about within it to looke to, euen from his loynes vpwarde: and to looke to, euen from his loynes downewarde, I sawe as a likenesse of fire, and brightnesse round about it.
