Ezekieli 10
1 Ine nditayangʼana ku thambo limene lili pamwamba pa mitu ya akerubi ndinangoona chinthu chooneka ngati mpando waufumu wa mwala wa safiro.
Then I looked, and, behold, over the firmament that was above the head of the cherubs [there was] a likeness of a throne over them, as a sapphire stone.
2 Tsono Yehova anawuza munthu wovala chovala chabafuta uja kuti, “Pita pakati pa mikombero kunsi kwa akerubi. Udzaze manja ako ndi makala oyaka amene ali pakati pa akerubiwo ndipo uwawaze mu mzinda.” Iye anachita zimenezi ine ndikuona.
And he said to the man clothed with the [long] robe, Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubs, and fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubs, and scatter [them] over the city. And he went in my sight.
3 Apa akerubiwo anali atayima mbali ya kummwera kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu pamene munthuyo ankalowa. Tsono mtambo unadzaza bwalo lamʼkati.
And the cherubs stood on the right hand of the house, as the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Ndipo ulemerero wa Yehova unachoka pamwamba pa akerubi ndipo unafika ku chiwundo cha Nyumba ya Mulungu. Mtambo unadzaza Nyumba ya Mulungu, ndipo kuwala kwa ulemerero wa Yehova kunadzaza bwalolo.
Then the glory of the Lord departed from the cherubs to the porch of the house; and the cloud filled the house, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
5 Phokoso la mapiko a akerubi limamveka mpaka ku bwalo lakunja, monga momwe linamvekera liwu la Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse akamayankhula.
And the sound of the cherubs' wings was heard as far as the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God speaking.
6 Kenaka Yehova analamula munthu wovala chovala chabafuta uja kuti, “Pala moto pakati pa mikombero, pakati pa akerubi.” Munthu uja anapitadi nakayima pa mbali pa mkombero umodzi.
And it came to pass, when he gave a charge to the man clothed with the sacred robe, saying, Take fire from between the wheels from between the cherubs, that he went in, and stood near the wheels.
7 Ndipo mmodzi wa akerubi anatambalitsa dzanja lake mpaka pa moto umene unali pakati pawo. Iye anapalako motowo ndipo anapatsa munthu wovala chovala chabafuta uja. Tsono iye anawulandira natuluka.
And he stretched forth his hand into the midst of the fire that was between the cherubs, and took [thereof], and put [it] into the hands of the man clothed with the sacred robe: and he took [it], and went out.
8 Ndiye kuti kunsi kwa mapiko akerubi kumaoneka zinthu zooneka ngati manja a munthu.
And I saw the cherubs [having] the likeness of men's hands under their wings.
9 Ine nditayangʼanitsitsa ndinaona mikombero inayi pambali pa akerubi. Pambali pa kerubi aliyense panali mkombero umodzi; mikomberoyo inkanyezimira ngati miyala yokongola ya krizoliti.
And I saw, and behold, four wheels stood by the cherubs, one wheel by each cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the appearance of a carbuncle stone.
10 Maonekedwe a mikombero inayi ija anali ofanana. Mkombero uliwonse umaoneka ngati mkombero wolowana ndi unzake.
And [as for] their appearance, [there was] one likeness to the four, as if there should be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
11 Poyenda akerubiwo, amapita mbali iliyonse ya mbali zinayizo kumene akerubiwo amayangʼana. Mikomberoyo simatembenuka pamene akerubiwo ankayenda. Kulikonse kumene mutu walunjika nʼkumene ankapita popanda kutembenuka.
When they went, they went on their four sides; they turned not when they went, for whichever way the first head looked, they went; and they turned not as they went.
12 Matupi awo onse, misana yawo, manja awo ndi mapiko awo zinali ndi maso okhaokha, monganso mʼmene inalili mikombero yawo inayi ija.
And their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about the four wheels.
13 Ine ndinamva mikombero ikutchedwa kuti, “mikombero yakamvuluvulu.”
And these wheels were called Gelgel in my hearing.
14 Kerubi aliyense anali ndi nkhope zinayi. Nkhope yoyamba inali ya Kerubi, nkhope yachiwiri inali ya munthu, nkhope yachitatu inali ya mkango ndipo nkhope yachinayi inali ya chiwombankhanga.
15 Tsono akerubi aja anawuluka. Izi zinali zamoyo zija zimene ndinaziona ku mtsinje wa Kebara.
And the cherubs were the same living creature which I saw by the river of Chobar.
16 Pamene akerubi ankayenda, nayonso mikombero ya mʼmbali mwawo inkayenda. Akerubiwo ankati akatambasula mapiko awo kuti auluke mikombero sinkachoka mʼmbali mwawo.
And when the cherubs went, the wheels went, and they were close to them: and when the cherubs lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, their wheels turned not.
17 Akerubiwo ankati akayima, mikombero inkayimanso. Ngati akerubiwo auluka, mikomberoyo inkapita nawo chifukwa mzimu wa zamoyozo ndiwo unkayendetsa mikomberoyo.
When they stood, [the wheels] stood; and when they mounted up, [the wheels] mounted up with them: because the spirit of life was in them.
18 Pamenepo ulemerero wa Yehova unachoka pa chiwundo cha Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi kukakhala pamwamba pa akerubi.
Then the glory of the Lord departed from the house, and went up on the cherubs.
19 Ine ndikuona akerubi, anatambasula mapiko awo ndi kuwuluka. Pamene ankapita, mikombero inapita nawo pamodzi. Akerubi anakayima pa khomo la chipata cha kummawa cha Nyumba ya Yehova. Tsono ulemerero wowala wa Mulungu wa Israeli unali pamwamba pawo.
And the cherubs lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went forth, the wheels were also beside them, and they stood at the entrance of the front gate of the house of the Lord; and the glory of the God of Israel was upon them above.
20 Izi ndizo zamoyo ndinaziona pansi pa Mulungu wa Israeli ku mtsinje wa Kebara, ndipo ndinazindikira kuti anali akerubi.
This is the living creature which I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chobar; and I knew that they were cherubs.
21 Kerubi aliyense anali ndi nkhope zinayi ndi mapiko anayi, ndipo kunsi kwa mapiko awo kunali chinthu chimene chimaoneka ngati manja a munthu.
Each one [had] four faces, and each one [had] eight wings; and under their wings was the likeness of men's hands.
22 Nkhope zawo zinali zofanana ndi zomwe ndinaziona ku mtsinje wa Kebara. Kerubi aliyense amayenda molunjika.
And [as for] the likeness of their faces, these are the [same] faces which I saw under the glory of the God of Israel by the river of Chobar: and they went each straight forward.
