In the fire were what looked like four living beings. In their appearance they had human form,

In the midst of the living beings there was something that looked like burning coals of fire, like torches darting back and forth among the living beings. The fire was bright, and lightning was flashing from the fire.

When I looked at the living creatures, there was one wheel on the ground beside each creature that had four faces.

Their wheels and their construction details looked like gold-colored beryl. Each wheel was identical in form to the others, and they appeared to have been constructed and designed as if one wheel were within another.
