Ezekiel 10
1 I looked up and saw what looked like a throne made of lapis lazuli beyond the expanse, way above the heads of the cherubim.
Meda ŋku ɖi, eye mekpɔ nu si ɖi fiazikpui si wowɔ kple kpe xɔasi la wònɔ teƒe keke si nɔ kerubiawo tame.
2 Speaking from there the Lord told the man in linen, “Go in between the wheels underneath the cherubim. Collect as many burning coals as you can. Carry them from among the cherubim and scatter them all over the city.” I watched as he went in.
Yehowa gblɔ na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la be, “Yi tasiaɖamfɔti siwo dzi kerubiawo le la dome. Lɔ dzoka xɔxɔ si le kerubiawo dome la ɖe wò asi me, eye nàwui ɖe du la dzi.” Menɔ ekpɔm wòge ɖe eme.
3 The cherubim were standing on the south side of the Temple when the man went in. A cloud filled the inner court.
Azɔ la, kerubiawo nɔ tsitre ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe dziehe lɔƒo esi ame la ge ɖe eme, eye lilikpo yɔ xɔxɔnu emetɔ fũu.
4 Then the Lord's glory rose up from above the cherubim and moved to the entrance of the Temple. The cloud filled the Temple, and the brightness of the Lord's glory filled the courtyard.
Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ho tso kerubiawo tame, eye wòyi gbedoxɔ la ƒe kpui nu. Lilikpo la yɔ gbedoxɔ la fũu, eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe keklẽ yɔ xɔxɔnu la.
5 The noise made by the cherubim's wings could even be heard in the outer courtyard, and sounded like the voice of God Almighty.
Woate ŋu ase kerubiawo ƒe aʋalaƒoƒo ƒe ɖiɖi le keke xɔxɔnu egodotɔ ke abe Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe gbe, ne eƒo nu ene.
6 When the Lord ordered the man in linen, “Go and get some fire from in between the wheels, from among the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside one of the wheels.
Yehowa ɖe gbe na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la be, “Ɖe dzo tso tasiaɖamfɔtiawo dome, le kerubiawo dome.” Ŋutsu la yi ɖatsi tsitre ɖe tasiaɖamfɔtiawo dometɔ ɖeka gbɔ.
7 Then one of the cherubim reached out and took some of the fire among them. He handed it to the man in linen, who took it and left.
Tete kerubiawo dometɔ ɖeka do eƒe asi ɖa te ɖe dzo si le wo dome la ŋu. Eɖe dzo la ƒe ɖe ɖe asi na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la. Exɔe eye wodo go.
8 (All the cherubim had what looked like human hands under their wings.)
Woate ŋu akpɔ nane si ɖi amegbetɔ ƒe asi la le kerubiawo ƒe aʋala te.
9 I saw four wheels next to the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The wheels shone like topaz.
Meda ŋku ɖi, eye mekpɔ tasiaɖamfɔti ene le kerubiawo gbɔ, ɖeka le kerubi ɖe sia ɖe gbɔ, eye tasiaɖamfɔtiawo nɔ dzo dam abe kpe xɔasi ene.
10 All four wheels looked the same, and had a wheel within a wheel, set crossways.
Wo ame eneawo katã woɖi wo nɔewo; wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nɔ abe tasiaɖamfɔti ɖeka ko wonye ge ɖe nɔvia me ene.
11 The cherubim could go in any direction they faced, moving without turning.
Ne wole zɔzɔm la, woyia teƒe eneawo dometɔ ɖeka, afi si kerubi la atrɔ mo ɖo. Tasiaɖamfɔtiawo metrɔna to eme hafi dzea kerubi la yome o. Kerubi la yia afi sia afi si wòtrɔ mo ɖo, eye wometrɔna le zɔzɔme o.
12 The whole of their bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were covered in eyes, as were all four wheels.
Ŋkuwo nɔ woƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa sia akpa, woƒe dzime, woƒe asiwo kple woƒe aʋalawo ŋu abe ale si wonɔ tasiaɖamfɔti eneawo hã ŋu ene.
13 I heard the wheels being referred to as “the chariot wheels.”
Mese wonɔ tasiaɖamfɔtiawo yɔm be “yalifɔtiwo.”
14 Each of them had four faces: the first face was a cherub's face, the second a man's face, the third a lion's face, and the fourth an eagle's face.
Mo ene nɔ kerubiawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe si. Moawo dometɔ ɖeka nye kerubi tɔ, evelia nye ame tɔ, etɔ̃lia nye dzata tɔ eye enelia nye hɔ̃ tɔ.
15 Then the cherubim rose up in the air. They were the beings I'd seen beside the River Kebar.
Kerubiawo kɔ wo ɖokui dzi. Esiawoe nye nu gbagbe siwo mekpɔ le Kebar Tɔsisi la to.
16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved alongside them. Even when they opened their wings to take off, the wheels stayed beside them.
Ne kerubiawo ɖe zɔ la, tasiaɖamfɔtiawo nɔa wo xa, eye woawo hã zɔna. Ne kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋala be yewoadzo la tasiaɖamfɔtiawo meɖena ɖa le wo xa o.
17 When the cherubim stopped, the wheels stopped too. When they took off, the wheels did too, because the spirit of the living creatures was in them.
Ne kerubiawo tɔ la, woawo hã wotɔna, eye ne kerubiawo dzo la, woawo hã wodzona kpli wo, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ nɔ wo me.
18 Then the glory of the Lord left the entrance to the Temple and stopped above the cherubim.
Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dzo le gbedoxɔ la ƒe kpui la tame, eye wòtɔ ɖe kerubiawo tame.
19 As I watched, the cherubim lifted their wings and took off, with the wheels alongside them. They stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the Lord's Temple, and the glory of the God of Israel was above them.
Esi meda ŋku ɖi la, kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋalawo, dzo tso anyigba, eye esi woyina la, tasiaɖamfɔtiawo hã yi kpli wo. Wotɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe ɣedzeƒegbo la tame, eye Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe nɔ wo tame.
20 These were the beings I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar. I knew that they were cherubim.
Esiawoe nye nu gbagbe siwo mekpɔ le Israel ƒe Mawu la te le Kebar tɔsisi la to eye medze sii be, kerubiwo wonye.
21 Each had four faces and four wings and had what looked like human hands under their wings.
Mo ene kple aʋala ene nɔ ɖe sia ɖe si, eye nu si ɖi ame ƒe asiwo la nɔ woƒe aʋalawo te.
22 Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each of them moved directly ahead.
Woƒe mowo nɔ abe esiwo mekpɔ le Kebar tɔsisi la to ene. Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe yi ŋgɔ tẽe.
