Jezekiel 10
1 Then I looked, and, behold, over the firmament that was above the head of the cherubs [there was] a likeness of a throne over them, as a sapphire stone.
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.
2 And he said to the man clothed with the [long] robe, Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubs, and fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubs, and scatter [them] over the city. And he went in my sight.
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.
3 And the cherubs stood on the right hand of the house, as the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
Men Keruberne stode ved Husets højre Side, da Manden gik ind, og Skyen fyldte den inderste Forgaard.
4 Then the glory of the Lord departed from the cherubs to the porch of the house; and the cloud filled the house, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
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.
5 And the sound of the cherubs' wings was heard as far as the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God speaking.
Og Lyden af Kerubernes Vinger hørtes ud til den yderste Forgaard ligesom den almægtige Guds Røst, naar han taler.
6 And it came to pass, when he gave a charge to the man clothed with the sacred robe, saying, Take fire from between the wheels from between the cherubs, that he went in, and stood near the wheels.
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.
7 And he stretched forth his hand into the midst of the fire that was between the cherubs, and took [thereof], and put [it] into the hands of the man clothed with the sacred robe: and he took [it], and went out.
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.
8 And I saw the cherubs [having] the likeness of men's hands under their wings.
Og der saas paa Keruberne Skikkelsen af en Menneskehaand under deres Vinger.
9 And I saw, and behold, four wheels stood by the cherubs, one wheel by each cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the appearance of a carbuncle stone.
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.
10 And [as for] their appearance, [there was] one likeness to the four, as if there should be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
Og af Udseende havde de alle fire een Skikkelse, det var, som om eet Hjul var midt i det andet.
11 When they went, they went on their four sides; they turned not when they went, for whichever way the first head looked, they went; and they turned not as they went.
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.
12 And their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about the four wheels.
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.
13 And these wheels were called Gelgel in my hearing.
Til Hjulene, til dem blev der raabt for mine Øren: Galgal!
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.
15 And the cherubs were the same living creature which I saw by the river of Chobar.
Og Keruberne hævede sig i Vejret; dette var det levende Væsen, som jeg havde set ved Floden Kebar.
16 And when the cherubs went, the wheels went, and they were close to them: and when the cherubs lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, their wheels turned not.
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.
17 When they stood, [the wheels] stood; and when they mounted up, [the wheels] mounted up with them: because the spirit of life was in them.
Naar hine stode, stode disse, og naar hine hævede sig, hævede disse sig med dem; thi Livets Aand var i dem.
18 Then the glory of the Lord departed from the house, and went up on the cherubs.
Og Herrens Herlighed gik ud fra Dørtærskelen paa Huset og stillede sig over Keruberne.
19 And the cherubs lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went forth, the wheels were also beside them, and they stood at the entrance of the front gate of the house of the Lord; and the glory of the God of Israel was upon them above.
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.
20 This is the living creature which I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chobar; and I knew that they were cherubs.
Dette var det levende Væsen, som jeg havde set under Israels Gud ved Floden Kebar, og jeg kendte, at det var Keruberne.
21 Each one [had] four faces, and each one [had] eight wings; and under their wings was the likeness of men's hands.
Enhver havde fire Ansigter og enhver fire Vinger, og under deres Vinger var der en Skikkelse af Menneskehænder.
22 And [as for] the likeness of their faces, these are the [same] faces which I saw under the glory of the God of Israel by the river of Chobar: and they went each straight forward.
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.
