Ezekiel 10:1-3

New International Reader's Version

The Glory of the Lord Moves Out of the Temple

10 I looked up and saw something that appeared to be a throne made out of lapis lazuli. It was above the huge space that was spread out over the heads of the cherubim. ² The Lord spoke to the man who was wearing linen clothes. He said, “Go in among the wheels beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from the fire that is among the cherubim. Scatter the coals over the city.” As I watched, he went in.

³ The cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple when the man went in. A cloud filled the inner courtyard.
