and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we cannot now speak severally.

And the first cherub was like a lion, and the second cherub like a bullock, and the third cherub had the face of a man, and the fourth cherub was like a flying eagle.

and before the throne was as it were a sea of glass like crystal; and in the midst of the throne and about the throne were four living ones [cherubs] full of eyes before and behind.

And the four cherubs had each six wings apiece. And they were full of eyes around and within, and they had no rest day nor night, saying, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty the Was and the Is and the Is to come.

And when the cherubs gave glory and honor and thanks to him that sat on the throne who lives forever and ever,

And I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four cherubs and in the midst of the elders, a lamb standing as if killed, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent into all the earth.

And when he took the book, the four cherubs and the twenty-four elders fell down before the lamb, each having a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which is the prayers of the saints:

And I saw, and heard a voice of many angels about the throne, and of the cherubs, and of the elders,??nd the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands and thousands of thousands,??12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was killed to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.

And the four cherubs said, Amen. And the elders fell down and worshipped:

AND I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and heard one of the four cherubs say like the sound of thunder, Come.

And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second cherub say, Come.

And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third cherub say, Come. And I saw, and behold, a black horse, and he that sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four cherubs, saying, A choenix [a quart] of wheat for a denarius [14 cents], and three choenices of barley for a denarius; and injure not the oil and wine.

And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth cherub say, Come.

And all the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four cherubs, and fell down before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

And they sung a new song before the throne and before the four cherubs and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the hundred and forty-four thousand, who had been redeemed from the earth.

And one of the four cherubs gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of the God who lives forever and ever.

And the twenty-four elders fell down, and the four cherubs, and worshipped God who sat on the throne, saying, Amen, Halleluia.
