Ezekiel 10
1 And I looked and saw above the expanse, above the heads of the cherubim, the likeness of a throne of sapphire.
et vidi et ecce in firmamento quod erat super caput cherubin quasi lapis sapphyrus quasi species similitudinis solii apparuit super ea
2 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.
et dixit ad virum qui indutus erat lineis et ait ingredere in medio rotarum quae sunt subtus cherub et imple manum tuam prunis ignis quae sunt inter cherubin et effunde super civitatem ingressusque est in conspectu meo
3 Now when the man went in, the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple, and a cloud filled the inner court.
cherubin autem stabant a dextris domus cum ingrederetur vir et nubes implevit atrium interius
4 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.
et elevata est gloria Domini desuper cherub ad limen domus et repleta est domus nube et atrium repletum est splendore gloriae Domini
5 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.
et sonitus alarum cherubin audiebatur usque ad atrium exterius quasi vox Dei omnipotentis loquentis
6 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.
cumque praecepisset viro qui indutus erat lineis dicens sume ignem de medio rotarum quae sunt inter cherubin ingressus ille stetit iuxta rotam
7 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.
et extendit cherub manum de medio cherubin ad ignem qui erat inter cherubin et sumpsit et dedit in manus eius qui indutus erat lineis qui accipiens egressus est
8 (The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.)
et apparuit in cherubin similitudo manus hominis subtus pinnas eorum
9 Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. And the wheels gleamed like a beryl stone.
et vidi et ecce quattuor rotae iuxta cherubin rota una iuxta cherub unum et rota alia iuxta cherub unum species autem erat rotarum quasi visio lapidis chrysoliti
10 As for their appearance, all four had the same form, like a wheel within a wheel.
et aspectus earum similitudo una quattuor quasi sit rota in medio rotae
11 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.
cumque ambularent in quattuor partes gradiebantur non revertebantur ambulantes sed ad locum ad quem ire declinabat quae prima erat sequebantur et ceterae nec convertebantur
12 Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were full of eyes all around, as were their four wheels.
et omne corpus earum et colla et manus et pinnae et circuli plena erant oculis in circuitu quattuor rotarum
13 I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”
et rotas istas vocavit volubiles audiente me
14 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.
quattuor autem facies habebat unum facies una facies cherub et facies secunda facies hominis et in tertio facies leonis et in quarto facies aquilae
15 Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the River Kebar.
et elevata sunt cherubin ipsum est animal quod videram iuxta flumen Chobar
16 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.
cumque ambularent cherubin ibant pariter et rotae iuxta ea et cum levarent cherubin alas suas ut exaltarentur de terra non residebant rotae sed et ipsae iuxta erant
17 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.
stantibus illis stabant et cum elevatis elevabantur spiritus enim vitae erat in eis
18 Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temple and stood above the cherubim.
et egressa est gloria Domini a limine templi et stetit super cherubin
19 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.
et elevantia cherubin alas suas exaltata sunt a terra coram me et illis egredientibus rotae quoque subsecutae sunt et stetit in introitu portae domus Domini orientalis et gloria Dei Israhel erat super ea
20 These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar, and I knew that they were cherubim.
ipsum est animal quod vidi subter Deum Israhel iuxta fluvium Chobar et intellexi quia cherubin essent
21 Each had four faces and four wings, with what looked like human hands under their wings.
quattuor per quattuor vultus uni et quattuor alae uni et similitudo manus hominis sub alis eorum
22 Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each creature went straight ahead.
et similitudo vultuum eorum ipsi vultus quos videram iuxta fluvium Chobar et intuitus eorum et impetus singulorum ante faciem suam ingredi
