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, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over 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 spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, [even] under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter [them] over 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 cherubims 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.

Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, [and stood] over 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 cherubims’ wings was heard [even] to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God 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, [that] when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.

7 og rakte Haanden ind i Ilden, som brændte mellem Keruberne, og kom ud med noget deraf.

And [one] cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that [was] between the cherubims, and took [thereof], and put [it] into the hands of [him that was] clothed with linen: who took [it], and went out.

8 Under Kerubernes Vinger saas noget, der lignede en Menneskehaand;

And there appeared in the cherubims 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 when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by 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 appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of 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 upon 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, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.

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 a 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 cherubims were lifted up. This [is] the living creature that I saw by the river of 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 cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims 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 were lifted up, [these] lifted up themselves [also: ] for the spirit of the living creature [was] in them.

18 Saa forlod HERRENS Herlighed Templets Tærskel og stillede sig over Keruberne.

Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.

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 cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also [were] beside them, and [every one] 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 of Chebar; and I knew that they [were] the cherubims.

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 the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
