Ezekiel 1
1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in the midst of the captives by the river Chobar, the heavens were opened, and I saw the visions of God.
Alò, li te vin rive nan trèzyèm ane, sou senkyèm jou a Katriyèm mwa a, pandan mwen te akote rivyè Kebar a, pami egzile yo, ke syèl yo te louvri, e mwen te wè vizyon a Bondye.
2 On the fifth day of the month, the same was the fifth year of the captivity of king Joachin,
(Sou senkyèm jou nan mwa a, nan senkyèm ane egzil a Wa Jojakin nan,
3 The word of the Lord came to Ezechiel the priest the son of Bud in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chobar: and the hand of the Lord was there upon him.
Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive eksprè a Ézéchiel, prèt la, fis a Buzi, nan peyi Kaldeyen yo akote rivyè Kebar a; epi la, men SENYÈ a te vini sou li.)
4 And I saw, and behold a whirlwind came out of the north: and a great cloud, and a fire infolding it, and brightness was about it: and out of the midst thereof, that is, out of the midst of the fire, as it were the resemblance of amber:
Pandan mwen t ap gade, men gade byen, yon van tanpèt te vini soti nan nò, yon gwo nwaj ak loraj ki t ap tire san rete; yon limyè byen klere te antoure l e nan mitan l, yon bagay tankou metal ki klere nan mitan dife a.
5 And in the midst thereof the likeness of four living creatures: and this was their appearance: there was the likeness of a man in them.
Anndan li, te gen fòm ki te sanble kat kreyati vivan. Men ki jan yo te parèt: yo te gen yon fòm tankou moun.
6 Every one had four faces, and every one four wings.
Yo chak te gen kat figi ak kat zèl.
7 Their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their foot was like the sole of a calf’s foot, and they sparkled like the appearance of glowing brass.
Janm yo te dwat, pye yo te tankou zago jenn bèf, e yo te klere tankou bwonz poli.
8 And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides: and they bad faces, and wings on the four sides,
Anba zèl yo, nan kat kote yo, te gen men a moun. Yo kat te gen figi ak zèl yo konsa:
9 And the wings of one were joined to the wings of another. They turned not when they went: but every one went straight forward.
Zèl pa yo te jwente youn lòt. Yo pa t vire lè yo te deplase. Yo chak te ale tou dwat devan.
10 And as for the likeness of their faces: there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side of all the four: and the face of an ox, on the left side of all the four: and the face of an eagle over all the four.
Pou fòm a figi yo a, yo chak te gen figi tankou a yon moun. Toule kat te gen figi a yon lyon adwat, figi a yon towo agoch, e toule kat te gen figi a yon èg.
11 And their faces, and their wings were stretched upward: two wings of every one were joined, and two covered their bodies:
Se konsa figi yo te ye. Zèl yo te ouvri anlè. Yo chak te gen de ki te touche a yon lòt kreyati e de ki te kouvri kò yo.
12 And every one of them went straight forward: whither the impulse of the spirit was to go, thither they went: and they turned not when they went.
Epi yo chak te ale tou dwat devan. Nenpòt kote lespri a te prèt pou ale, yo ta ale, san menm vire pandan yo t ap prale a.
13 And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like that of burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps. This was the vision running to and fro in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, and lightning going forth from the fire.
Nan mitan kreyati vivan yo, te gen yon bagay ki te sanble ak chabon dife, tankou tòch ki t ap file fè ale retou pami kreyati vivan yo. Dife a te klere e loray te vòltije soti nan dife a.
14 And the living creatures ran and returned like flashes of lightning.
Epi kreyati vivan yo te kouri fè ale retou tankou kout loray.
15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, there appeared upon the earth by the living creatures one wheel with four faces.
Alò, pandan mwen t ap gade kreyati vivan yo, gade byen, te gen yon wou sou tè a akote kreyati vivan yo, pou chak nan kat fas de yo.
16 And the appearance of the wheels, and the work of them was like the appearance of the sea: and the four had all one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
Wou yo te sanble, jan yo te fèt la, tankou yon wòch krizolit briyan. E toule kat te gen menm fòm. Nan aparans la, jan yo fè l la, yo te fèt konsi yon wou te anndan yon lòt wou.
17 When they went, they went by their four parts: and they turned not when they went.
Nenpòt lè yo deplase, yo te deplase nan nenpòt nan kat direksyon yo, san menm vire pandan yo t ap deplase a.
18 The wheels had also a size, and a height, and a dreadful appearance: and the whole body was full of eyes round about all the four.
Wotè a wou yo te tèlman wo. Yo te etonan. Arebò toule kat te plen ak zye toutotou l nèt.
19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels also went together by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels also were lifted up with them.
Nenpòt lè kreyati vivan yo te deplase, wou yo te deplase avèk yo. Epi nenpòt lè kreyati vivan yo te leve kite tè a, wou yo te leve tou.
20 Whithersoever the spirit went, thither as the spirit went the wheels also were lifted up withal, and followed it: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
Nenpòt kote lespri a te prèt pou ale, yo ta ale nan direksyon sa a. Epi wou yo te leve toupre bò kote yo; paske lespri a kreyati vivan yo te nan wou yo.
21 When those went these went, and when those stood these stood, and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels also were lifted up together, and followed them: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
Nenpòt kote sa yo te ale, sila yo te ale tou. Lè sa yo te kanpe an plas, sila yo te kanpe an plas tou. Epi nenpòt lè sa yo te monte kite tè a, wou yo te leve toupre bò kote yo; paske lespri a kreyati vivan yo te nan wou yo.
22 And over the heads of the living creatures was the likeness of the firmament, as the appearance of crystal terrible to behold, and stretched out over their heads above.
Alò, anwo tèt a kreyati vivan yo, te gen yon bagay tankou yon gwo espas, tankou yon briyans mèvèy kon kristal, ki te ouvri byen laj sou tèt yo.
23 And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other, every one with two wings covered his body, and the other was covered in like manner.
Anba gwo espas la, zèl yo te lonje dwat, youn anvè lòt. Yo chak te gen de zèl ki te kouvri kò l tou, youn yon kote e youn yon lòt kote.
24 And I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, as it were the voice of the most high God: when they walked, it was like the voice of a multitude, like the noise of an army, and when they stood, their wings were let down.
Anplis, mwen te tande son a zèl yo tankou son anpil gwo dlo pandan yo t ap prale, tankou vwa a Toupwisan an, yon son a gwo boulvèsman, tankou son a yon lame ki nan kan li. Nenpòt lè yo sispann fè mouvman, yo lage desann zèl yo.
25 For when a voice came from above the firmament, that was over their heads, they stood, and let down their wings.
Konsa, te sòti yon vwa depi anwo gran espas lan ki te sou tèt pa yo. Nenpòt lè yo te sispann fè mouvman, yo te lage desann zèl yo.
26 And above the firmament that was over their heads, was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of the sapphire stone, and upon the likeness of the throne, was a likeness as of the appearance of a man above upon it.
Alò, anwo gwo espas ki te anwo tèt yo a, te gen yon bagay ki te sanble ak yon twòn, tankou yon pyè safì nan aparans. Epi sou sa ki te sanble a yon twòn nan, byen wo, te gen yon fòm ak aparans a yon nonm.
27 And I saw as it were the resemblance of amber as the appearance of fire within it round about: from his loins and upward, and from his loins downward, I saw as it were the resemblance of fire shining round about.
Sa mwen te wè, te soti nan aparans a ren Li ak piwo, yon bagay tankou metal klere ki te sanble dife toutotou anndan l. Soti nan aparans a ren Li e piba, mwen te wè yon bagay tankou dife, epi te gen yon ekla limyè ki te antoure Li.
28 As the appearance of the rainbow when it is in a cloud on a rainy day: this was the appearance of the brightness round about.
Menm jan ak aparans a lakansyèl nan nwaj yo nan jou l ap fè lapli, konsa aparans a ekla limyè ki te antoure li a te ye. Konsa aparans a imaj a glwa a SENYÈ a te ye. Lè m te wè l, mwen te tonbe sou figi mwen, e mwen te tande yon vwa ki t ap pale.
