< Ezekiel 10 >

1 Og jeg skuede og se, over Hvælvingen over Kerubernes Hoveder var der noget som Safir; noget ligesom en Trone viste sig over dem.
Then I looked, and, behold, upon the firmament that was over the head of the cherubim, there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 Saa sagde han til Manden i det linnede Klædebon: »Gaa ind mellem Hjulene under Keruberne og tag Hænderne fulde af glødende Kul fra Rummet mellem Keruberne og strø det ud over Byen!« Og jeg saa ham gaa derhen.
And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight.
3 Keruberne stod sønden for Templet, da Manden gik derhen, og Skyen fyldte den indre Forgaard.
Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Og HERRENS Herlighed hævede sig fra Keruberne og flyttede sig hen til Templets Tærskel; da fyldtes Templet af Skyen, og Forgaarden fyldtes af HERRENS Herligheds Glans.
And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to 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 Suset af Kerubernes Vinger hørtes helt ud i den ydre Forgaard som Gud den Almægtiges Røst, naar han taler.
And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh.
6 Saa bød han Manden i det linnede Klædebon: »Tag Ild fra Rummet mellem Hjulene, inde mellem Keruberne!« Og Manden stillede sig hen ved Siden af det ene Hjul
And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel.
7 og rakte Haanden ind i Ilden, som brændte mellem Keruberne, og kom ud med noget deraf.
And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
8 Under Kerubernes Vinger saas noget, der lignede en Menneskehaand;
And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.
9 og jeg skuede, og se, der var fire Hjul ved Siden af Keruberne, eet ved hver Kerub, og Hjulene var som funklende Krysolit at se til.
And I looked, and behold four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
10 De saa alle fire ens ud, og det var, som om der i hvert Hjul var et andet Hjul,
And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been within a wheel.
11 De kunde gaa til alle fire Sider de vendte sig ikke, naar de gik. Thi de gik i den Retning, den forreste vendte, og de vendte sig ikke, naar de gik.
When they went, they went toward 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.
12 Hele deres Legeme, Ryg, Hænder og Vinger og ligeledes Hjulene var fulde af Øjne rundt om; saaledes var det med alle fire Hjul.
And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.
13 Og jeg hørte, at Hjulene kaldtes Galgal.
As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing The wheelwork.
14 Hver af dem havde fire Ansigter; det ene var et Kerubansigt, det andet et Menneskeansigt, det tredje et Løveansigt og det fjerde et Ørneansigt.
And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of the 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.
15 Og Keruberne hævede sig i Vejret. Det var det samme levende Væsen, jeg saa ved Floden Kebar.
And the cherubim mounted up — this is the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
16 Naar Keruberne gik, gik ogsaa Hjulene ved Siden af, og naar Keruberne løftede Vingerne for at hæve sig fra Jorden, vendte Hjulene sig ikke fra dem;
And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
17 naar de standsede, standsede ogsaa de; og naar de hævede sig, hævede de sig med, thi Væsenets Aand var i dem.
When they stood, these stood, and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Saa forlod HERRENS Herlighed Templets Tærskel og stillede sig over Keruberne.
And the glory of the LORD went forth from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.
19 Og jeg saa, hvorledes Keruberne løftede Vingerne og hævede sig fra Jorden, da de gik, og Hjulene med dem; og de standsede ved Indgangen til HERRENS Hus's Østport, og Israels Guds Herlighed var oven over dem.
And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight when they went forth, and the wheels beside them; and they 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.
20 Det var det samme levende Væsen, jeg saa under Israels Gud ved Floden Kebar; og jeg skønnede, at det var Keruber.
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.
21 Hver af dem havde fire Ansigter og fire Vinger og noget ligesom Menneskehænder under Vingerne.
Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 Og deres Ansigter var ligesom de Ansigter, jeg saa ved Floden Kebar. De gik alle lige ud.
And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they went every one straight forward.
