حِزْقِيَال 10

١ 1 ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا عَلَى ٱلْمُقَبَّبِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ شَيْءٌ كَحَجَرِ ٱلْعَقِيقِ ٱلْأَزْرَقِ، كَمَنْظَرِ شِبْهِ عَرْشٍ.

Then I looked, and behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubim there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

٢ 2 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّجُلَ ٱللَّابِسَ ٱلْكَتَّانِ وَقَالَ: «ٱدْخُلْ بَيْنَ ٱلْبَكَرَاتِ تَحْتَ ٱلْكَرُوبِ وَٱمْلَأْ حَفْنَتَيْكَ جَمْرَ نَارٍ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ، وَذَرِّهَا عَلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ». فَدَخَلَ قُدَّامَ عَيْنَيَّ.

And he spoke to the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, [even] under the cherub, and fill thy hand with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter [them] over the city. And he entered in my sight.

٣ 3 وَٱلْكَرُوبِيمُ وَاقِفُونَ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْبَيْتِ حِينَ دَخَلَ ٱلرَّجُلُ، وَٱلسَّحَابَةُ مَلَأَتِ ٱلدَّارَ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةَ.

Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

٤ 4 فَٱرْتَفَعَ مَجْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَنِ ٱلْكَرُوبِ إِلَى عَتَبَةِ ٱلْبَيْتِ. فَٱمْتَلَأَ ٱلْبَيْتُ مِنَ ٱلسَّحَابَةِ، وَٱمْتَلَأَتِ ٱلدَّارُ مِنْ لَمَعَانِ مَجْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, [and stood] over the threshhold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory.

٥ 5 وَسُمِعَ صَوْتُ أَجْنِحَةِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ كَصَوْتِ ٱللهِ ٱلْقَدِيرِ إِذَا تَكَلَّمَ.

And the sound of the cherubim's wings was heard [even] to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.

٦ 6 وَكَانَ لَمَّا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّجُلَ ٱللَّابِسَ ٱلْكَتَّانِ قَائِلًا: «خُذْ نَارًا مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْبَكَرَاتِ، مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ» أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ وَوَقَفَ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْبَكَرَةِ.

And it came to pass, [that] when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.

٧ 7 وَمَدَّ كَرُوبٌ يَدَهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ ٱلَّتِي بَيْنَ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ، فَرَفَعَ مِنْهَا وَوَضَعَهَا فِي حَفْنَتَيِ ٱللَّابِسِ ٱلْكَتَّانِ، فَأَخَذَهَا وَخَرَجَ.

And [one] cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim, to the fire that [was] between the cherubim, and took [of it], and put [it] into the hands of [him that was] clothed with linen: who took [it], and went out.

٨ 8 فَظَهَرَ فِي ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ شِبْهُ يَدِ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَجْنِحَتِهَا.

And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.

٩ 9 وَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا أَرْبَعُ بَكَرَاتٍ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ. بَكَرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْوَاحِدِ، وَبَكَرَةٌ أُخْرَى بِجَانِبِ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ. وَمَنْظَرُ ٱلْبَكَرَاتِ كَشِبْهِ حَجَرِ ٱلزَّبَرْجَدِ.

And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubim, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels [was] as the color of a beryl stone.

١٠ 10 وَمَنْظَرُهُنَّ شَكْلٌ وَاحِدٌ لِلْأَرْبَعِ. كَأَنَّهُ كَانَ بَكْرَةٌ وَسْطِ بَكْرَةٍ.

And [as for] their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.

١١ 11 لَمَّا سَارَتْ، سَارَتْ عَلَى جَوَانِبِهَا ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ. لَمْ تَدُرْ عِنْدَ سَيْرِهَا، بَلْ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي تَوَجَّهَ إِلَيْهِ ٱلرَّأْسُ ذَهَبَتْ وَرَاءَهُ. لَمْ تَدُرْ عِنْدَ سَيْرِهَا.

When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked, they followed it; they turned not as they went.

١٢ 12 وَكُلُّ جِسْمِهَا وَظُهُورِهَا وَأَيْدِيهَا وَأَجْنِحَتِهَا وَٱلْبَكَرَاتِ مَلْآنَةٌ عُيُونًا حَوَالَيْهَا لِبَكَرَاتِهَا ٱلْأَرْبَعِ.

And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, [were] full of eyes on every side, [even] the wheels that they four had.

١٣ 13 أَمَّا ٱلْبَكَرَاتُ فَنُودِيَ إِلَيْهَا فِي سَمَاعِي: «يَا بَكْرَةُ».

As for the wheels, it was cried to them in my hearing, O wheel.

١٤ 14 وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ أَرْبَعَةُ أَوْجُهٍ: ٱلْوَجْهُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ وَجْهُ كَرُوبٍ، وَٱلْوَجْهُ ٱلثَّانِي وَجْهُ إِنْسَانٍ، وَٱلثَّالِثُ وَجْهُ أَسَدٍ، وَٱلرَّابِعُ وَجْهُ نَسْرٍ.

And every one had four faces: the first face [was] the face of a cherub, and the second face [was] the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

١٥ 15 ثُمَّ صَعِدَ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمُ. هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْحَيَوَانُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُهُ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ.

And the cherubim were lifted up. This [is] the living creature that I saw by the river of Kebar.

١٦ 16 وَعِنْدَ سَيْرِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ سَارَتِ ٱلْبَكَرَاتُ بِجَانِبِهَا، وَعِنْدَ رَفْعِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِلِٱرْتِفَاعِ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ لَمْ تَدُرِ ٱلْبَكَرَاتُ أَيْضًا عَنْ جَانِبِهَا.

And when the cherubim went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.

١٧ 17 عِنْدَ وُقُوفِهَا وَقَفَتْ هَذِهِ، وَعِنْدَ ٱرْتِفَاعِهَا ٱرْتَفَعَتْ مَعَهَا، لِأَنَّ فِيهَا رُوحَ ٱلْحَيَوَانِ.

When they stood, [these] stood; and when they were lifted up, [these] lifted up themselves [also]: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in them.

١٨ 18 وَخَرَجَ مَجْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ عَلَى عَتَبَةِ ٱلْبَيْتِ وَوَقَفَ عَلَى ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ.

Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshhold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.

١٩ 19 فَرَفَعَتِ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا وَصَعِدَتْ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ قُدَّامَ عَيْنَيَّ. عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهَا كَانَتِ ٱلْبَكَرَاتُ مَعَهَا، وَوَقَفَتْ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ بَابِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلشَّرْقِيِّ، وَمَجْدُ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ فَوْقُ.

And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also [were] beside them, and [every one] stood at the door of the east-gate of the LORD'S house; and the glory of the God of Israel [was] over them above.

٢٠ 20 هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْحَيَوَانُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُهُ تَحْتَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ. وَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهَا هِيَ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمُ.

This [is] the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Kebar; and I knew that they [were] the cherubim.

٢١ 21 لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ أَرْبَعَةُ أَوْجُهٍ، وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ أَرْبَعَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ، وَشِبْهُ أَيْدِي إِنْسَانٍ تَحْتَ أَجْنِحَتِهَا.

Every one had four faces each, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man [was] under their wings.

٢٢ 22 وَشَكْلُ وُجُوهِهَا هُوَ شَكْلُ ٱلْوُجُوهِ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْتُهَا عِنْدَ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ مَنَاظِرُهَا وَذَوَاتُهَا. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يَسِيرُ إِلَى جِهَةِ وَجْهِهِ.

And the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces which I saw by the river of Kebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
