< Ezekiel 10 >
1 And I looked, and behold, in the expanse 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.
Tango natalaki, namonaki na mapata, na likolo ya mito ya basheribe, eloko moko lokola libanga ya talo oyo babengaka safiri; mpe na likolo ya libanga yango, eloko moko ezalaki komonana lokola kiti ya bokonzi.
2 And he spoke unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Come in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill the hollow of thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.
Yawe alobaki na moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino: « Leka kati na bapine oyo ezali na se ya basheribe, tondisa maboko na yo na makala ya moto oyo okozwa kati na basheribe mpe panza yango na engumba. » Mpe asalaki bongo na miso na ngai.
3 And the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
Nzokande, basheribe bazalaki na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Tempelo tango moto wana akotaki, mpe lipata moko etondisaki lopango na yango ya kati.
4 And the glory of Jehovah mounted up from the cherub, [and came] over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of Jehovah's glory.
Nkembo ya Yawe elongwaki na likolo ya basheribe mpe ekendeki na ekotelo ya Tempelo. Tempelo etondaki na lipata, mpe lopango na yango ya kati etondaki na kongenga ya Nkembo ya Yawe.
5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
Makelele ya mapapu ya basheribe ezalaki koyokana na mosika kino na lopango ya libanda ya Tempelo lokola mongongo ya Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, tango alobaka.
6 And it came to pass when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim, then he went in, and stood beside the wheel.
Tango Yawe apesaki mitindo na moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino: « Kamata moto kati na bapine mpe kati na basheribe, » moto yango akotaki mpe atelemaki pembeni ya pine moko.
7 And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took and put it into the hands of him [that was] clothed with linen; who took [it], and went out.
Bongo moko kati na basheribe asembolaki loboko na ye kino na moto oyo ezalaki na kati-kati na bango; akamataki ndambo ya makala ya moto kati na moto mpe atiaki yango kati na maboko ya moto oyo alataki bilamba ya lino. Moto yango azwaki yango mpe abimaki na libanda.
8 And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.
Na se ya mapapu ya basheribe, elilingi moko emonanaki lokola maboko ya moto.
9 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 look of a chrysolite stone.
Tango natalaki, namonaki bapine minei pene ya basheribe: pine moko pembeni ya sheribe moko; bongo bapine yango ezalaki kongenga lokola libanga ya Krizolite.
10 And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
Bapine yango minei ezalaki ndenge moko, ezalaki komonana lokola moko kati na mosusu.
11 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.
Soki ezali kotambola, ekendaka na bangambo nyonso minei oyo elongi ya basheribe ekotala; mpe bapine yango ezalaki kotengama te soki basheribe bazali kotambola. Basheribe bazalaki kokende na bangambo nyonso oyo bilongi na bango ezalaki kotala, mpe bazalaki kobaluka na bangambo mosusu te.
12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, in them four [and] their wheels.
Nzoto mobimba ya moko na moko kati na bango, ezala mokongo to maboko to mpe mapapu na bango, ezalaki etonda na miso, ndenge bapine na bango minei ezalaki.
13 As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, Galgal.
Nayokaki ete bazali kobenga bapine yango « bapine ya mopepe ya kayina. »
14 And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
Sheribe moko na moko azalaki na bilongi minei: elongi ya liboso ezalaki lokola elongi ya sheribe, ya mibale lokola elongi ya moto, ya misato lokola elongi ya nkosi mpe ya minei lokola elongi ya mpongo.
15 And the cherubim mounted up. This was the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
Bongo basheribe bapumbwaki na likolo makasi. Ezalaki bikelamu ya bomoi oyo namonaki pembeni ya ebale Kebari.
16 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.
Soki basheribe bazali kotambola, bapine oyo ezalaki na mipanzi na bango ezalaki mpe kotambola. Soki bafungoli mapapu na bango mpo na kopumbwa longwa na se, bapine yango mpe ezalaki kokabwana na bango te, kasi nde ezalaki ya kokangana na mipanzi na bango.
17 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.
Soki basheribe batelemi, yango mpe ezalaki kotelema; soki bapumbwe, yango mpe ezalaki kopumbwa elongo na bango, pamba te molimo ya bikelamu ya bomoi ezalaki kati na yango.
18 And the glory of Jehovah departed from over the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.
Nkembo ya Yawe elongwaki na ekotelo ya Tempelo mpe ekendeki kotelema na likolo ya basheribe.
19 And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight, when they went out; and the wheels were beside them; and they stood at the door of the east gate of Jehovah's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Wana nazalaki kotala, basheribe bafungolaki mapapu na bango mpe bapumbwaki longwa na se; mpe tango bazalaki kokende, bapine yango mpe ezalaki kokende elongo na bango. Batelemaki na ekotelo ya Ekuke ya ngambo ya este ya Tempelo ya Yawe, bongo nkembo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele ezalaki likolo na bango.
20 This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.
Ezalaki nde bikelamu ya bomoi oyo namonaki na se ya Nzambe ya Isalaele pembeni ya Kebari; mpe nasosolaki ete ezali basheribe.
21 Each one had four faces, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
Moko na moko kati na bango azalaki na bilongi minei mpe mapapu minei; bongo na se ya mapapu na bango, ezalaki na elilingi moko lokola maboko ya moto.
22 And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I had seen by the river Chebar — their appearance and themselves: they went every one straight before them.
Bilongi na bango ezalaki ndenge moko na oyo namonaki pene ya Kebari. Moko na moko azalaki kotambola kaka liboso.
