¹⁷ When ^[a]the cherubim ^(A)stood still, ^[b]the wheels would stand still; and when they rose up, ^[c]the wheels would rise with them, for the spirit of the living beings was in them.

¹⁸ Then the glory of the Lord departed from the threshold of the temple and stood ^(B)over the cherubim. ¹⁹ When ^(C)the cherubim departed, they lifted their wings and rose up from the earth in my sight with the wheels beside them; and they stood still at the entrance of the east gate of the Lord’s house, and the glory of the God of Israel ^[d]hovered over them.
