← Ezekiel 1:9	Ezekiel 1:10 (KJV)	Ezekiel 1:11 →
Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.	As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.	Thus [were] their faces: and their wings [were] stretched upward; two [wings] of every one [were] joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
