Ezekiel 1:15-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 As I looked at the living creatures, I noticed one wheel on the ground beside each one of the living creatures that had four faces. 16 The appearance of the wheels and their design were like the sparkle of topaz,[a] and the four of them looked alike. Their appearance and their design were like a wheel within a wheel.[b] 17 They could go in any of the four directions when they moved, but the wheels did not turn from side to side when they moved.[c]

New International Version
15 As I looked at the living creatures,(A) I saw a wheel(B) on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 16 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz,(C) and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 17 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction(D) as the creatures went.
