Ezekiel 1:24

---

← Ezekiel 1:23	Ezekiel 1:24 (KJV)	Ezekiel 1:25 →
And under the firmament [were] their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.	And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.	And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.
