< Ezekiel 10 >
1 And saw and behold in the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubims, there appeared over them as it were the sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩndarorire ngĩona hau rĩera-inĩ igũrũ rĩa mĩtwe ya akerubi kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene ta ihiga rĩa yakuti.
2 And he spoke to the man, that was clothed with linen, and said: Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubims and fill thy hand with the coals of fire that are between the cherubims, and pour them out upon the city. And he went in, in my sight:
Nake Jehova akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũtoonye gatagatĩ-inĩ ka magũrũ macio marathiũrũrũka rungu rwa harĩa akerubi marĩ. Iyũria hĩ ciaku cierĩ makara ma mwaki kuuma gatagatĩ ka akerubi ũcooke ũmahurunje kũu itũũra-inĩ inene.” Nake agĩthiĩ agĩtoonya thĩinĩ, o ngĩĩonagĩra na maitho makwa.
3 And the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.
Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũcio aatoonya thĩinĩ, akerubi acio magĩkorwo marũgamĩte mwena wa gũthini wa hekarũ, narĩo itu rĩkaiyũra nja ĩrĩa ya na thĩinĩ.
4 And the glory of the Lord was lifted up from above the cherub to the threshold of the house: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
Naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩambata uumĩte igũrũ rĩa akerubi, na ũgĩthiĩ hingĩro-inĩ ya hekarũ. Itu rĩu rĩkĩiyũra hekarũ, nayo nja ĩkĩiyũra ũkengi wa riiri wa Jehova.
5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubims was heard even to the outward court as the voice of God Almighty speaking.
Naguo mũrurumo wa mathagu ma akerubi acio nĩwaiguĩkaga o nginya kũu nja ya nyumĩrĩra, o taarĩ mũgambo wa Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe rĩrĩa ekwaria.
6 And when he had commanded the man that was clothed with linen, saying: Take fire from the midst of the wheels that are between the cherubims: he went in and stood beside the wheel,
Na rĩrĩa Jehova aathire mũndũ ũcio warĩ na nguo cia gatani, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya mwaki kuuma gatagatĩ ka magũrũ macio, kuuma gatagatĩ-inĩ ka akerubi,” mũndũ ũcio agĩtoonya thĩinĩ na akĩrũgama mwena-inĩ wa kũgũrũ kũmwe kwamo.
7 And one cherub stretched out his arm from the midst of the cherubims to the fire that was between the cherubims: and he took, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it and went forth.
Ningĩ ũmwe wa akerubi acio agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake mwaki-inĩ ũcio warĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao. Akĩoya mwaki ũmwe waguo, akĩwĩkĩra hĩ-inĩ cia mũndũ ũcio warĩ na nguo cia gatani, nake mũndũ ũcio akĩwoya akiuma nja.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the likeness of a man’s hand under their wings.
(Rungu rwa mathagu ma akerubi acio nĩkuonekaga kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta moko ma mũndũ.)
9 And I saw, and behold there were four wheels by the cherubims: one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was to the sight like the chrysolite stone:
Nĩndarorire, ngĩona magũrũ mana ma ngaari hau mĩena-inĩ ya akerubi acio, o kũmwe gũkagĩa mwena-inĩ wa o ũmwe wa akerubi acio; magũrũ macio maahenagia ta rangi wa thumarati.
10 And as to their appearance, all four were alike: as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
Makĩoneka-rĩ, mothe mana nĩmahaanaine; o kũgũrũ kuonekaga ta gũtoonyanĩte na kũgũrũ kũngĩ.
11 And when they went, they went by four ways: and they turned not when they went: but to the place whither they first turned, the rest also followed, and did not turn back.
Magĩthiĩ, maathiiaga na mwena o wothe wa ĩyo ĩna, o kũrĩa akerubi acio merekeirie ũthiũ; magũrũ macio ma ngaari matiagarũrũkaga rĩrĩa akerubi acio megũthiĩ. Akerubi acio maathiiaga na kũrĩa guothe mũtwe werekera, matekũgarũrũka rĩrĩa marathiĩ.
12 And their whole body, and their necks, and their hands, and their wings, and the circles were full of eyes, round about the four wheels.
Mĩĩrĩ yao yothe, o hamwe na mĩgongo yao, na moko mao na mathagu mao, maiyũrĩte maitho kũndũ guothe, na magũrũ macio mana ma ngaari o namo.
13 And these wheels he called voluble, in my hearing.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩndaiguire magũrũ macio magĩĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Magũrũ marĩa mathiũrũrũkaga.”
14 And every one had four faces: one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face, the face of a man: and in the third was the face of a lion: and in the fourth the face of an eagle.
O ũmwe wa akerubi aarĩ na mothiũ mana: Ũthiũ ũmwe warĩ wa kerubi, na wa keerĩ warĩ wa mũndũ, na wa gatatũ warĩ wa mũrũũthi, na wa kana warĩ wa nderi.
15 And the cherubims were lifted up: this is the living creature that I had seen by the river Chobar.
Ningĩ akerubi acio makĩambata na igũrũ. Ici ciarĩ ciũmbe irĩ muoyo iria ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari.
16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels also went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings, to mount up from the earth, the wheels stayed not behind, but were by them.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akerubi acio maathiiaga, magũrũ macio maarĩ mĩena-inĩ yao namo magathiĩ; na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akerubi acio maambararia mathagu mao mombũke, magũrũ macio matioimaga mĩena-inĩ yao.
17 When they stood, these stood: and when they were lifted up, these were lifted up: for the spirit of life was in them.
Rĩrĩa akerubi acio marũgama, o namo makarũgama o ũguo; na rĩrĩa akerubi mombũka, namo makombũkania nao, tondũ roho wa ciũmbe icio irĩ muoyo warĩ thĩinĩ wamo.
18 And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple: and stood over the cherubims.
Ningĩ riiri wa Jehova ũkĩehera hau igũrũ rĩa hingĩro ya hekarũ na ũkĩrũgama igũrũ rĩa akerubi acio.
19 And the cherubims lifting up their wings, were raised from the earth before me: and as they went out, the wheels also followed: and it stood in the entry of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
O ndĩĩroreire ũguo, akerubi acio makĩambararia mathagu mao makĩũmbũka, na rĩrĩa maathiiaga, magũrũ macio maatwaranaga nao. Nao makĩrũgama itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa irathĩro wa nyũmba ya Jehova; naguo riiri wa Ngai wa Isiraeli warĩ igũrũ rĩao.
20 This is the living creature, which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chobar: and I understood that they were cherubims.
Icio nĩ ciũmbe irĩ muoyo iria ndoonete irĩ rungu rwa Ngai wa Isiraeli hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari, na niĩ ngĩmenya atĩ maarĩ akerubi.
21 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man’s hand was under their wings.
O ũmwe aarĩ na mothiũ mana, na mathagu mana, na rungu rwa mathagu mao nĩ haarĩ na kĩndũ gĩatariĩ ta moko ma mũndũ.
22 And as to the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces which I had seen by the river Chobar, and their looks, and the impulse of every one to go straight forward.
Mothiũ mao maahaanaga ta marĩa ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari. O ũmwe wao aathiiaga arũngĩrĩirie na mbere.
