At the end of seven days the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

And there the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He said to me, “Get up, go out to the plain, and there I will speak with you.”

So I got up and went out to the plain, and behold, the glory of the LORD was present there, like the glory I had seen by the River Kebar, and I fell facedown.

“Now you, son of man, take a brick, place it before you, and draw on it the city of Jerusalem.

And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am the LORD.

And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

This is what the Lord GOD says: ëDisaster! An unprecedented disaster—behold, it is coming!

In the sixth year, on the fifth day of the sixth month, I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before me; and there the hand of the Lord GOD fell upon me.

Then I looked and saw a figure like that of a man. From His waist down His appearance was like fire, and from His waist up He was as bright as the gleam of amber.

He stretched out what looked like a hand and took me by the hair of my head. Then the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and carried me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the idol that provokes jealousy was seated.

And there I saw the glory of the God of Israel, like the vision I had seen in the plain.

“Son of man,” He said to me, “now lift up your eyes to the north.” So I lifted up my eyes to the north, and in the entrance north of the Altar Gate I saw this idol of jealousy.

Then He brought me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.

“Son of man,” He told me, “dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall and discovered a doorway.

Then He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here.”

Again, He told me, “You will see them committing even greater abominations.”

“Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”

Now when the man went in, the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple, and a cloud filled the inner court.

Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. And the wheels gleamed like a beryl stone.

These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar, and I knew that they were cherubim.
