⁴ And there before me was the glory^(A) of the God of Israel, as in the vision I had seen in the plain.^(B)

³ Now the glory^(A) of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim,^(B) where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side

¹⁹ While I watched, the cherubim spread their wings and rose from the ground, and as they went, the wheels went with them.^(A) They stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the Lord’s house, and the glory^(B) of the God of Israel was above them.
