حِزْقِيال 1
| وَحَدَثَ فِي الْيَوْمِ الْخَامِسِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ الرَّابِعِ الْعِبْرِيِّ، فِي السَّنَةِ الثَّلاثِينَ، فِيمَا كُنْتُ بَيْنَ الْمَسْبِيِّينَ بِجُوَارِ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ، أَنِ انْفَتَحَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ فَشَاهَدْتُ رُؤَى مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ. | ١ 1 |
Now in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
| فِي الْيَوْمِ الْخَامِسِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ، فِي السَّنَةِ الْخَامِسَةِ لِسَبْيِ الْمَلِكِ يُويَاكِينَ، | ٢ 2 |
In the fifth of the month, which was the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity,
| أَوْحَى الرَّبُّ إِلَى حِزْقِيَالَ الْكَاهِنِ ابْنِ بُوزِي عِنْدَ جُوَارِ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ، فِي دِيَارِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، إِذْ كَانَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُ الرَّبِّ، | ٣ 3 |
Yahweh’s word came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and Yahweh’s hand was there on him.
| فَأَبْصَرْتُ رِيحاً عَاصِفَةً تَهُبُّ مِنَ الشِّمَالِ مَصْحُوبَةً بِسَحَابَةٍ هَائِلَةٍ، وَنَارٍ مُتَوَاصِلَةٍ مُتَوَهِّجَةٍ بِهَالَةٍ مُحِيطَةٍ مِنَ الضِّيَاءِ؛ وَمِنْ وَسَطِهَا يَتَأَلَّقُ مِثْلُ النُّحَاسِ اللّامِعِ الْبَارِقِ مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ. | ٤ 4 |
I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came out of the north: a great cloud, with flashing lightning, and a brightness around it, and out of the middle of it as it were glowing metal, out of the middle of the fire.
| وَمِنْ دَاخِلِهَا بَدَا شِبْهُ أَرْبَعَةِ كَائِنَاتٍ حَيَّةٍ تُمَاثِلُ فِي صُوَرِهَا شِبْهَ إِنْسَانٍ، | ٥ 5 |
Out of its center came the likeness of four living creatures. This was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.
| وَكَانَ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَوْجُهٍ وَأَرْبَعَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ. | ٦ 6 |
Everyone had four faces, and each one of them had four wings.
| وَكَانَتْ سِيقَانُهَا مُسْتَقِيمَةً، وَأَقْدَامُهَا مُشَابِهَةً لأَقْدَامِ الْعِجْلِ، وَهِيَ تُبْرِقُ كَبَرِيقِ النُّحَاسِ الْمَصْقُولِ. | ٧ 7 |
Their feet were straight feet. The sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot; and they sparkled like burnished bronze.
| وَتَحْتَ أَجْنِحَتِهَا الْقَائِمَةِ عَلَى جَوَانِبِهَا الأَرْبَعَةِ، أَيْدِي بَشَرٍ، وَكَانَ لِكُلِّ كَائِنٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْكَائِنَاتِ الأَرْبَعَةِ أَجْنِحَةٌ وَأَوْجُهٌ. | ٨ 8 |
They had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides. The four of them had their faces and their wings like this:
| وَكَانَتْ أَجْنِحَتُهَا تَتَلامَسُ، وَأَوْجُهُهَا لَا تَدُورُ عِنْدَ سَيْرِهَا، بَلْ يَسِيرُ كُلٌّ مِنْهَا وَوَجْهُهُ مُتَّجِهٌ إِلَى الأَمَامِ. | ٩ 9 |
Their wings were joined to one another. They didn’t turn when they went. Each one went straight forward.
| أَمَّا أَشْكَالُ أَوْجُهِهَا، فَكَانَ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهَا وَجْهُ إِنْسَانٍ، يُحَاذِيهِ إِلَى الْيَمِينِ وَجْهُ أَسَدٍ، وَإِلَى الشِّمَالِ وَجْهُ ثَوْرٍ، ثُمَّ إِلَى جُوَارِهِ وَجْهُ نَسْرٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man. The four of them had the face of a lion on the right side. The four of them had the face of an ox on the left side. The four of them also had the face of an eagle.
| كَانَتْ هَذِهِ أَشْكَالَ أَوْجُهِهَا. وَكَانَ لِكُلٍّ مِنْهَا أَرْبعَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ تَمْتَدُّ مِنْ وَسَطِ الظَّهْرِ: اثْنَانِ يَتَّصِلُ طَرَفُ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا بِطَرَفِ جَنَاحِ الْكَائِنِ الآخَرِ، وَاثْنَانِ يَسْتُرَانِ أَجْسَامَهُمَا. | ١١ 11 |
Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. Two wings of each one touched another, and two covered their bodies.
| وَكَانَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهَا يَتَّجِهُ إِلَى الأَمَامِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَدُورَ، فَحَيْثُمَا يَتَوَجَّهُ الرُّوحُ يَتَوَجَّهُونَ هُمْ أَيْضاً. | ١٢ 12 |
Each one went straight forward. Where the spirit was to go, they went. They didn’t turn when they went.
| أَمَّا مَنْظَرُ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ هَذِهِ فَكَانَ كَجَمَرَاتِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ، أَوْ مَشَاعِلَ تَجُوزُ جِيئَةً وَذَهَاباً بَيْنَ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ. وَكَانَتِ النَّارُ مُضِيئَةً يَلْمَعُ مِنْهَا وَمِيضُ بَرْقٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches. The fire went up and down among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and lightning went out of the fire.
| وَالْكَائِنَاتُ الْحَيَّةُ تَتَرَاكَضُ ذِهَاباً وَإِيَاباً فِي سُرْعَةِ لَمْحِ الْبَرْقِ. | ١٤ 14 |
The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
| وَفِيمَا كُنْتُ أَتَأَمَّلُ فِي الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ، إِذَا بِي أُشَاهِدُ أَرْبَعَ عَجَلاتٍ، عَجَلَةٍ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Now as I saw the living creatures, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it.
| أَمَّا شَكْلُ الْعَجَلاتِ وَصَنْعَتُهَا فَكَانَ كَمِثْلِ الزَّبَرْجَدِ، وَهِيَ مُتَشَابِهَةُ الصُّورَةِ. وَكَانَ مَنْظَرُهَا وَصَنْعَتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا عَجَلَةٌ دَاخِلَ عَجَلَةٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. The four of them had one likeness. Their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
| وَإذَا سَارَتْ فَإِنَّهَا تَسِيرُ فِي أَيٍّ مِنَ الاتِّجَاهَاتِ الأَرْبَعَةِ إِلَى الأَمَامِ، مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَتَحَوَّلَ عَنِ اتِّجَاهِهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
When they went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn when they went.
| أَمَّا أُطُرُهَا فَعَالِيَةٌ وَهَائِلَةٌ، وَجَمِيعُهَا مَلأَى بِالْعُيُونِ. | ١٨ 18 |
As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and the four of them had their rims full of eyes all around.
| وَكُلَّمَا تَتَحَرَّكُ الْكَائِنَاتُ الْحَيَّةُ، تَتَحَرَّكُ مَعَهَا الْعَجَلاتُ، وَكُلَّمَا تَرْتَفِعُ عَنِ الأَرْضِ تَرْتَفِعُ مَعَهَا الْعَجَلاتُ أَيْضاً. | ١٩ 19 |
When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
| وَحَيْثُمَا يَتَوَجَّهُ الرُّوحُ تَتَوَجَّهُ أَيْضاً، وَتَرْتَفِعُ مَعَهَا عَجَلاتُهَا، لأَنَّ رُوحَ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ سَارٍ أَيْضاً فِي الْعَجَلاتِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Wherever the spirit was to go, they went. The spirit was to go there. The wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
| فَإِنْ سَارَتْ هَذِهِ تَسِيرُ تِلْكَ، وَإِنْ تَوَقَّفَتْ تَتَوَقَّفُ، لأَنَّ رُوحَ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ سَارٍ فِي الْعَجَلاتِ أَيْضاً. | ٢١ 21 |
When those went, these went. When those stood, these stood. When those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
| وَانْبَسَطَ فَوْقَ رُؤُوسِ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ جَلَدٌ يُشْبِهُ الْبِلَّوْرَ الْمُتَلألِئَ الْهَائِلَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of an expanse, like an awesome crystal to look at, stretched out over their heads above.
| وَامْتَدَّتْ أَجْنِحَتُهَا تَحْتَ الْجَلَدِ بِاسْتِقَامَةٍ، الْوَاحِدُ نَحْوَ الآخَرِ. لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهَا جَنَاحَانِ يَسْتُرَانِ جِسْمَهُ مِنَ الْجَانِبَيْنِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Under the expanse, their wings were straight, one toward the other. Each one had two which covered on this side, and each one had two which covered their bodies on that side.
| وَعِنْدَمَا سَارَتْ سَمِعْتُ رَفْرَفَةَ أَجْنِحَتِهَا كَهَدِيرِ مِيَاهٍ غَزِيرَةٍ، كَصَوْتِ الْقَدِيرِ، كَصَوْتِ جَلَبَةِ جَيْشٍ، وَعِنْدَ تَوَقُّفِهَا كَانَتْ تُرْخِي أَجْنِحَتَهَا. | ٢٤ 24 |
When they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army. When they stood, they let down their wings.
| وَصَدَرَ صَوْتٌ مِنْ فَوْقِ الْجَلَدِ الْمُنْبَسِطِ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهَا. وَحِينَ تَتَوَقَّفُ كَانَتْ تُرْخِي أَجْنِحَتَهَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
There was a voice above the expanse that was over their heads. When they stood, they let down their wings.
| وَانْتَصَبَ فَوْقَ الْجَلَدِ الْمُنْبَسِطِ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهَا شِبْهُ عَرْشٍ، مَنْظَرُهُ كَحَجَرِ اللازَوَرْدِ. وَيَجْلِسُ عَلَى شِبْهِ العَرْشِ مِنْ فَوْقُ مَنْ هُوَ كَشِبْهِ إِنْسَانٍ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. On the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it above.
| وَرَأَيْتُ مَا يَبْدُو مِنْ حَقْوَيْهِ فَمَا فَوْقُ وَكَأَنَّهُ نُحَاسٌ لامِعٌ يَتَوَهَّجُ فِي دَاخِلِهِ وَحَوَالَيْهِ. أَمَّا مَا يَبْدُو مِنْ حَقْوَيْهِ وَمَا تَحْتُ، فَكَأَنَّهُ نَارٌ، وَحَوَالَيْهَا يَشِعُّ بِالضِّيَاءِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him.
| وَكَانَ مَنْظَرُ اللَّمَعَانِ الْمُحِيطِ بِهِ كَمَنْظَرِ قَوْسِ قُزَحٍ فِي يَوْمٍ مَطِيرٍ؛ هَكَذَا كَانَ مَنْظَرُ شِبْهِ مَجْدِ الرَّبِّ. وَعِنْدَمَا أَبْصَرْتُ خَرَرْتُ عَلَى وَجْهِي وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتاً يَتَكَلَّمُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
As the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of Yahweh’s glory. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
