Ezekiel 1:23 in Context — Ezekiel 1

21 Quand ils marchaient, elles marchaient; quand ils s’arrêtaient, elles s’arrêtaient; quand ils s’élevaient de terre, les roues s’élevaient avec eux, car l’esprit des animaux était dans les roues.

22 Au-dessus des têtes des animaux, il y avait comme un ciel de cristal resplendissant, qui s’étendait sur leurs têtes dans le haut.

23 Sous ce ciel, leurs ailes étaient droites l’une contre l’autre, et ils en avaient chacun deux qui les couvraient, chacun deux qui couvraient leurs corps.

24 J’entendis le bruit de leurs ailes, quand ils marchaient, pareil au bruit de grosses eaux, ou à la voix du Tout-Puissant; c’était un bruit tumultueux, comme celui d’une armée; quand ils s’arrêtaient, ils laissaient tomber leurs ailes.

25 Et il se faisait un bruit qui partait du ciel étendu sur leurs têtes, lorsqu’ils s’arrêtaient et laissaient tomber leurs ailes.
