Καὶ τὸ ζῷον τὸ πρῶτον ὅμοιον λέοντι, καὶ τὸ δεύτερον ζῷον ὅμοιον μόσχῳ, καὶ τὸ τρίτον ζῷον ἔχον πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου, καὶ τὸ τέταρτον ζῷον ὅμοιον ἀετῷ πετομένῳ.

RBT Hebrew Literal:
And the First living one is compared to a lion, and the Second living one is compared to a young shoot, and the Third living one, he who is holding the Face just like a man, and the Fourth living one is compared to an eagle, he who is flying.
μόσχος moschos - a tender shoot/sprout
Metaphorically a young boy/girl
Cf. Hdt. 3.28, 2.41: Herodotus mentions Apis, the bull-god, where μόσχος refers to a young bull. E. Cyc. 389: Euripides' Cyclops uses μόσχος in the sense of "calf" (young cow). E. Hec. 526, Andr. 711: Euripides uses μόσχος to metaphorically refer to a young girl or maiden.

"A fresh olive leaf within the Mouth of herself..." (Genesis 8:11 RBT)

"The woman of yourself is like a vine, she who is fruitful within the dual thighs of your house. The sons of yourself are like grafted-shoots of the olive tree encircling the table of yourself."

(Psalm 128:3 RBT)
Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And the first living creature like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature having the face as a man, and the fourth living creature like a spreading eagle.
LITV Translation:
And the first living creature was like a lion; and the second living creature like a calf; and the third living creature having a face like a man; and the fourth living creature like an eagle flying.
ESV Translation:
the first living creature like a lion, the second living creature like an ox, the third living creature with the face of a man, and the fourth living creature like an eagle in flight.
