< Ezekiel 10 >

1 Hottelah, bout ka khet teh, cherubim e lû lathueng kalvan dawkvah Sapphire talung a phukaawm poung patetlah bawitungkhung hoi kâvan e arong a kamnue.
And I looked and saw above the expanse, above the heads of the cherubim, the likeness of a throne of sapphire.
2 Ahni ni loukloukkaang e hni kâkhu e koe, cherubim e rahak kaawm e hraba hah kut kahni touh hoi pham nateh, khopui thung kahei haw atipouh e patetlah ahni teh ka hmaitung vah a cei.
And the LORD said to the man clothed in linen, “Go inside the wheelwork beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” And as I watched, he went in.
3 Tami a kâen navah, cherubim teh, bawkim aranglah a kangdue awh. Im teh tâmai hoi a kawi teh, thongma teh tâmai hoi a kawi.
Now when the man went in, the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple, and a cloud filled the inner court.
4 BAWIPA bawilennae teh cherubim koehoi a luen teh, bawkim takhang van vah a kangdue. Im teh tâmai hoi akawi teh thongma teh BAWIPA bawilennae raeng hoi a kawi.
Then the glory of the LORD rose from above the cherubim and stood over the threshold of the temple. The temple was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the LORD.
5 Cherubim rathei takhawng pawlawk teh, thongma alawilah Cathut Athakasaipounge ni tami a pato lahunnae lawk patetlah thai e lah ao.
The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when He speaks.
6 Loukloukkaang e ka kho e koevah, lengkhok rahak hoi hmai hah lat haw telah a dei toteh, a kâen teh lengkhok teng a kangdue.
When the LORD commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, “Take fire from within the wheelwork, from among the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel.
7 Cherubim buet touh ni cherubim thung hoi a kut a dâw teh, cherubim rahak dawk kaawm e hmai a la hnukkhu, loukloukkaang e kâkhu e a kut dawk a poe e teh, ahni ni hai a dâw teh a tâco.
Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand and took some of the fire that was among them. And he put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who received it and went out.
8 Cherubim rathei rahim vah tami kut patet e a kamnue.
(The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.)
9 Ka khet navah, cherubim e teng vah lengkhok buet touh lengkaleng ao. Lengkhoknaw teh, Beril talung phukaawm komthawm e patetlah ao.
Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. And the wheels gleamed like a beryl stone.
10 Lengkhok pali touh teh sue a kâvan awh. Lengkhok buet touh e thung vah, alouke lengkhok kaawm e patetlah ao.
As for their appearance, all four had the same form, like a wheel within a wheel.
11 A cei awh navah pali touh lahoi rei a kangvawi e patetlah hmalah a cei awh teh, a cei awh nahai kamlang boi awh hoeh. Hatei pasuek kangvawi e koelah a cei awh. A cei awh navah kamlang boi awh hoeh.
When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions, without turning as they moved. For wherever the head faced, the cherubim would go in that direction, without turning as they moved.
12 A tak abuemlah a hnukkhu lae a kut naw, a rathei hoi lengkhok hai mit hoi akawi awh.
Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were full of eyes all around, as were their four wheels.
13 Lengkhoknaw teh, a hnâthainae koe roeroe lengkhok telah tie lah ao.
I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”
14 Cherubim teh minhmai pali touh rip a tawn awh teh, apasueke minhmai teh cherubim minhmai, apâhni e minhmai teh tami minhmai, apâthum e minhmai teh sendek e minhmai, apali e minhmai teh mataw minhmai doeh.
Each of the cherubim had four faces: the first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
15 Cherubim teh a luen awh. Hethateh, Kebar palang teng e moithang ka hmu e hah doeh.
Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the River Kebar.
16 Cherubim ni a cei awh toteh, lengkhok ni tang a kâbang sin. Cherubim ni talai hoi luen hanelah a rathei a pho awh navah, lengkhok ni hai cettakhai boihoeh.
When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and even when they spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not veer away from their side.
17 Kangdout awh pawiteh a kangdue awh van, luen awh pawiteh a luen awh van. Bangkongtetpawiteh, moithang muitha teh ahnimouh dawk ao.
When the cherubim stood still, the wheels also stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
18 BAWIPA bawilennae teh, bawkim takhang koehoi a tâco teh cherubim lathueng vah a kangdue.
Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temple and stood above the cherubim.
19 Cherubim ni ka hmaitung vah a rathei a kadai awh teh, talai dawk hoi a luen awh. Alawilah a tâco awh navah, lengkhoknaw ni a kâbang sin. BAWIPA e im hmalah longkha tho koe a kangdue awh teh, Isarel imthung e Cathut bawilennae teh ahnimouh lathueng vah ao.
As I watched, the cherubim lifted their wings and rose up from the ground, with the wheels beside them as they went. And they stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the LORD, with the glory of the God of Israel above them.
20 Hetheh Kebar palang Isarel Cathut rahim e moithang ka hmu e doeh, Cherubim tie ka panue.
These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar, and I knew that they were cherubim.
21 Ahnimouh ni minhmai 4, rathei 4 lengkaleng a tawn awh teh, a rathei rahim vah tami kut hoi kâvan e ao.
Each had four faces and four wings, with what looked like human hands under their wings.
22 A meilam a kamnuenae teh Kebar palang e ka hmu e mei hoi a kâvan. a takthai hai rei a kâvan. Hote pali touh e naw teh a hmalah phouk a cei awh.
Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each creature went straight ahead.
