¹⁶ And when the cherubim went, the wheels went with them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also did not turn from beside them.

¹⁷ When they stood still, these stood still; and when they lifted up themselves, these lifted up themselves also; for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

¹⁸ And the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house and stood over the cherubim.
