Ezekiel 1:15-21
New American Standard Bible
15 Now as I looked at the living beings, behold, there was one (A)wheel on the ground beside the living beings, for [a]each of the four of them. 16 The (B)appearance of the wheels and their workmanship was like [b]sparkling (C)topaz, and all four of them had the same form, their appearance and workmanship being as if [c]one wheel were within another. 17 Whenever they [d]moved, they [e]moved in any of their four [f]directions without (D)turning as they [g]moved. 18 As for their rims, they were high and awesome, and the rims of all four of them were [h](E)covered with eyes all around. 19 (F)Whenever the living beings [i]moved, the wheels [j]moved with them. And whenever the living beings (G)rose from the earth, the wheels rose also. 20 (H)Wherever the spirit was about to go, they would go in that direction[k]. And the wheels rose just as they did; for the spirit of the living [l]beings was in the wheels. 21 (I)Whenever those went, they went; and whenever those stopped, they stopped. And whenever those rose from the earth, the wheels rose just as they did; for the spirit of the living [m]beings was in the wheels.

Ezekiel 1:15-21
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. 18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes(E) all around.
19 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. 20 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go,(F) and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 21 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.(G)
