Ezekiel 10
1 Og jeg saa, og se paa den udstrakte Befæstning, som var over Kerubernes Hoved, var den som en Safirsten, som Skikkelsen af en Trone at se til; han viste sig over dem.
Then I saw, and, behold, on the vault that was above the head of the cherubim, there appeared over them something like a sapphire stone, something similar in appearance to the likeness of a throne.
2 Og han talte til den Mand, som var klædt i Linklæderne, og sagde: Gak ind imellem Hjulene, hen under Keruben, og tag dine Næver fulde af Gløder fra den Ild, som er imellem Keruberne, og strø dem over Staden; og han gik derind for mine Øjne.
And he said unto the man clothed in linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and throw [them] over the city. And he went in before my eyes.
3 Men Keruberne stode ved Husets højre Side, da Manden gik ind, og Skyen fyldte den inderste Forgaard.
Now the cherubim were standing on the right side of the house, when the man went in: and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Og Herrens Herlighed harvede sig op fra Keruben hen til Husets Dørtærskel; og Huset fyldtes af Skyen, og Forgaarden blev fuld af Herrens Herligheds Glans.
Then the glory of the Lord rose upward from the cherub, toward the threshold of the house: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord's glory.
5 Og Lyden af Kerubernes Vinger hørtes ud til den yderste Forgaard ligesom den almægtige Guds Røst, naar han taler.
And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
6 Og det skete, der han befalede Manden, som var klædt i Linklæderne, og sagde: Tag Ild fra den, som er imellem Hjulene, imellem Keruberne, da gik denne ind og stod ved Siden af Hjulet.
And it came to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim, that he went in, and stood beside the wheel.
7 Og Keruben udrakte sin Haand fra Keruberne til Ilden, som var imellem Keruberne, og han tog deraf og lagde i Næverne paa ham, der var klædt i Linklæderne, og denne, tog derimod og gik ud.
And the one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and lifted it up, and placed it into the hands of the one clothed in linen; who took it, and went out.
8 Og der saas paa Keruberne Skikkelsen af en Menneskehaand under deres Vinger.
And there became visible on the cherubim the form of a man's hand beneath their wings.
9 Og jeg saa, og se, der var fire Hjul ved Siden af Keruberne, eet Hjul ved den ene Kerub og eet Hjul ved den anden Kerub; og Hjulenes Udseende var som Synet af Krysolit.
And I saw, and, behold, there were four wheels by the cherubim, one wheel by the one cherub, and another wheel by the other cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was like the glitter of a chrysolite stone.
10 Og af Udseende havde de alle fire een Skikkelse, det var, som om eet Hjul var midt i det andet.
And as for their appearances, the whole four had one likeness, as if a wheel were in the midst of another wheel.
11 Naar de gik, gik de imod deres fire Sider, de vendte sig ikke, naar de gik; men til det Sted, hvor det forreste vendte, derhen fulgte de efter, de vendte sig ikke, naar de gik.
In their going, they went toward their four sides, they turned not round in their going; but to the place whither the head was turned they followed it, they turned not round in their going.
12 Og hele deres Legeme og deres Rygge og deres Hænder og deres Vinger og Hjulene vare fulde af Øjne trindt omkring, paa alle de fire Hjul.
And their whole body, and their back, and their hands, and their wings, as also the wheels, were full of eyes round about, [even] the wheels that belonged to all four of them.
13 Til Hjulene, til dem blev der raabt for mine Øren: Galgal!
As for the wheels, they were called Galgal before my ears.
14 Og enhver havde fire Ansigter; Ansigtet paa den første var Kerubens Ansigt, og Ansigtet paa den anden var et Menneskes Ansigt, og det tredje var en Løves Ansigt og det fjerde en Ørns Ansigt.
And every one had four faces: the one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third face was the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Og Keruberne hævede sig i Vejret; dette var det levende Væsen, som jeg havde set ved Floden Kebar.
And the cherubim lifted themselves up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river Kebar.
16 Og naar Keruberne gik, gik Hjulene hos dem; og naar Keruberne opløftede deres Vinger for at hæve sig fra Jorden, vendte Hjulene sig heller ikke bort fra deres Side.
And when the cherubim went forward, the wheels went close by them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels also did not turn away from beside them.
17 Naar hine stode, stode disse, og naar hine hævede sig, hævede disse sig med dem; thi Livets Aand var i dem.
When those halted, these halted; and when those lifted themselves up, these lifted themselves up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Og Herrens Herlighed gik ud fra Dørtærskelen paa Huset og stillede sig over Keruberne.
And the glory of the Lord went forth from off the threshold of the house, and halted over the cherubim.
19 Da opløftede Keruberne deres Vinger og hævede sig op fra Jorden for mine Øjne, der de gik ud, og Hjulene ved Siden af dem; og de bleve staaende ved Indgangen til den østre Port paa Herrens Hus, og Israels Guds Herlighed var oven over dem.
And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth before my eyes as they went forth, and the wheels at the same time with them, and halted at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
20 Dette var det levende Væsen, som jeg havde set under Israels Gud ved Floden Kebar, og jeg kendte, at det var Keruberne.
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Kebar; and I understood that they were cherubim.
21 Enhver havde fire Ansigter og enhver fire Vinger, og under deres Vinger var der en Skikkelse af Menneskehænder.
Every one had four faces apiece, and every one had four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 Og deres Ansigter vare at se til som de Ansigter, hvilke jeg havde set ved Floden Kebar, deres Skikkelser og dem selv; enhver gik lige frem for sig.
And the likeness of their faces was the same as the faces which I had seen by the river Kebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one in the direction of his face.
