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.
Pea naʻaku mamata, pea vakai, naʻe hā mai ʻae meʻa hangē ko e maka ko e safaia mei he fakamalumalu naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻulu ʻoe selupimi, pea naʻe hā mai ia hangē ko ha nofoʻa fakatuʻi.
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:
Pea naʻe folofola ia ki he tangata naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei, ʻo ne pehē, “Hū atu ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi teka, ʻi he lalo selupi, pea fakapito ʻaki ho nima ʻae malalaʻi afi mei he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi pea fakamokulu ia ki he kolo.” Pea naʻa ne hū atu ia ʻi hoku ʻao.
3 And the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.
Pea ko eni, naʻe hū atu ʻae tangata ʻoku tuʻu ʻae selupimi ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu ʻoe fale; pea naʻe fakafonu ʻaki ʻae ʻao ʻae lotoʻā ki loto.
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.
Pea naʻe toki hiki hake ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova mei he selupi, pea tuʻu mei he matapā ʻoe fale: pea naʻe pito ʻae fale ʻi he ʻao, pea pito mo e lotoʻā ʻi he malama ʻoe nāunau ʻo Sihova.
5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubims was heard even to the outward court as the voice of God Almighty speaking.
Pea naʻe ongo atu ʻo aʻu ki he lotoʻā kituʻa ʻae patū ʻoe kapakau ʻoe selupimi ʻo hangē ko e leʻo ʻoe ʻOtua Māfimafi ʻoka folofola ia.
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,
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fekau ki he tangata naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei, ʻo pehē, Toʻo ʻae afi mei he vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi teka mei he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi; pea toki hū atu ia ʻo ne tuʻu ofi ki he ngaahi teka.
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.
Pea mafao atu ʻe he selupi ʻe taha ʻa hono nima mei he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi ki he afi naʻe ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi, ʻo ne toʻo mei ai ʻo ne tuku ki he nima ʻo ia naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei pea ne ʻave ia ʻe ia, ʻo ne ʻalu atu.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the likeness of a man’s hand under their wings.
Pea naʻe hā mai ʻi he selupimi hangē ko e nima ʻoe tangata ʻi honau lalo kapakau:
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:
Pea ʻi heʻeku mamata, vakai naʻe ʻi he selupimi ʻae teka ʻe fā, ko e teka ʻe taha ʻi he selupi ʻe taha, pea ko e teka ʻe taha ʻi he selupi ʻe taha: pea ko e hā mai ʻae ngaahi teka naʻe hangē ko e lanu ʻoe maka ko e pelili.
10 And as to their appearance, all four were alike: as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
Pea ko e anga ʻo ʻenau hā mai, naʻe mata tatau ʻae toko fā ko ia, ʻo hangē naʻe ʻai ki he loto teka ʻe taha ha teka ʻe taha.
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.
ʻI heʻenau ʻalu, naʻa nau ʻalu ʻi honau tafaʻaki ʻe fā; naʻe ʻikai te nau tafoki ʻi heʻenau ʻalu, ka ko e potu ko ia naʻe hanga ki ai honau mata naʻa nau muimui ai; naʻe ʻikai te nau tafoki ʻi heʻenau ʻalu.
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.
Pea ko honau sino kotoa mo honau tuʻa, mo honau nima, mo honau kapakau, pea mo e ngaahi teka, naʻe fonu takatakai ʻi he mata, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi teka naʻe ʻi he toko fā ni.
13 And these wheels he called voluble, in my hearing.
Pea naʻe ui ki he ngaahi teka, ka ʻoku ou fanongo, “Ke ngaue atu.”
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.
Pea naʻe taki taha maʻu ʻae mata ʻe fā: ko e ʻuluaki mata ko e mata ia ʻoe selupi, pea ko hono ua ʻoe mata, ko e mata ia ʻoe tangata, pea ko hono tolu ko e mata ʻoe laione, pea ko hono fā ko e mata ʻoe ʻikale.
15 And the cherubims were lifted up: this is the living creature that I had seen by the river Chobar.
Pea naʻe hiki ki ʻolunga ʻae selupimi, Ko eni ia ʻae meʻa moʻui ko ia naʻaku mamata ai ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo Kipa.
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.
Pea ka ʻalu ʻae selupimi, naʻe ngaue fakataha mo e ngaahi teka: pea ʻi he fakamafola ʻe he selupimi honau kapakau ke puna hake mei he fonua, naʻe ʻikai foki atu meiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi teka ko ia.
17 When they stood, these stood: and when they were lifted up, these were lifted up: for the spirit of life was in them.
Ka nau ka tuʻumaʻu, ne tuʻumaʻu ia; pea ka hiki ki ʻolunga ʻakinautolu, naʻe hiki hake foki ia ʻe ia: he naʻe ʻi ai ʻae laumālie ʻoe meʻa moʻui.
18 And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple: and stood over the cherubims.
Pea naʻe toki mahuʻi atu ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova mei he matapā ʻoe fale ʻo tuʻu mei ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi selupimi.
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.
Pea naʻe mafola hake ʻe he selupimi honau kapakau, ʻonau puna hake mei he kelekele ʻi hoku ʻao: pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu atu naʻe ʻi ai pe foki ʻae ngaahi teka, pea naʻe tutuʻu kotoa pē ʻi he matapā fakahahake ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova; pea naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻae nāunau ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
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.
Ko eni ia ʻae meʻa moʻui ko ia naʻaku mamata ʻoku ʻafio mei ai ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo Kipa; pea naʻaku ʻilo ko e selupimi pe ʻakinautolu.
21 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man’s hand was under their wings.
Naʻe taki taha maʻu ʻae mata ʻe fā, pea taki taha ʻae kapakau ʻe fā; pea hangē ko e nima ʻoe tangata ʻi honau lalo kapakau.
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.
Pea ko e hā mai ʻa honau mata ko e mata pe ia naʻaku mamata ai ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo Kipa, ʻae anga ʻo ʻenau hā mai mo kinautolu foki: naʻe ʻalu fakahangatonu atu ʻakinautolu taki taha.
