Bible verse
Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the River Kebar.
Ezekiel 10:15 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 10.
11 When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions, without turning as they moved. For wherever the head faced, the cherubim would go in that direction, without turning as they moved.
12 Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were full of eyes all around, as were their four wheels.
13 I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”
14 Each of the cherubim had four faces: the first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
15 Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the River Kebar.
16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and even when they spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not veer away from their side.
17 When the cherubim stood still, the wheels also stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
18 Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temple and stood above the cherubim.
19 As I watched, the cherubim lifted their wings and rose up from the ground, with the wheels beside them as they went. And they stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the LORD, with the glory of the God of Israel above them.
