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.
et vidi et ecce in firmamento quod erat super caput cherubin quasi lapis sapphyrus quasi species similitudinis solii apparuit super ea
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.
et dixit ad virum qui indutus erat lineis et ait ingredere in medio rotarum quae sunt subtus cherub et imple manum tuam prunis ignis quae sunt inter cherubin et effunde super civitatem ingressusque est in conspectu meo
3 The cherubim were standing on the south side of the Temple when the man went in. A cloud filled the inner court.
cherubin autem stabant a dextris domus cum ingrederetur vir et nubes implevit atrium interius
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.
et elevata est gloria Domini desuper cherub ad limen domus et repleta est domus nube et atrium repletum est splendore gloriae Domini
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.
et sonitus alarum cherubin audiebatur usque ad atrium exterius quasi vox Dei omnipotentis loquentis
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.
cumque praecepisset viro qui indutus erat lineis dicens sume ignem de medio rotarum quae sunt inter cherubin ingressus ille stetit iuxta rotam
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.
et extendit cherub manum de medio cherubin ad ignem qui erat inter cherubin et sumpsit et dedit in manus eius qui indutus erat lineis qui accipiens egressus est
8 (All the cherubim had what looked like human hands under their wings.)
et apparuit in cherubin similitudo manus hominis subtus pinnas eorum
9 I saw four wheels next to the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The wheels shone like topaz.
et vidi et ecce quattuor rotae iuxta cherubin rota una iuxta cherub unum et rota alia iuxta cherub unum species autem erat rotarum quasi visio lapidis chrysoliti
10 All four wheels looked the same, and had a wheel within a wheel, set crossways.
et aspectus earum similitudo una quattuor quasi sit rota in medio rotae
11 The cherubim could go in any direction they faced, moving without turning.
cumque ambularent in quattuor partes gradiebantur non revertebantur ambulantes sed ad locum ad quem ire declinabat quae prima erat sequebantur et ceterae nec convertebantur
12 The whole of their bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were covered in eyes, as were all four wheels.
et omne corpus earum et colla et manus et pinnae et circuli plena erant oculis in circuitu quattuor rotarum
13 I heard the wheels being referred to as “the chariot wheels.”
et rotas istas vocavit volubiles audiente me
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.
quattuor autem facies habebat unum facies una facies cherub et facies secunda facies hominis et in tertio facies leonis et in quarto facies aquilae
15 Then the cherubim rose up in the air. They were the beings I'd seen beside the River Kebar.
et elevata sunt cherubin ipsum est animal quod videram iuxta flumen Chobar
16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved alongside them. Even when they opened their wings to take off, the wheels stayed beside them.
cumque ambularent cherubin ibant pariter et rotae iuxta ea et cum levarent cherubin alas suas ut exaltarentur de terra non residebant rotae sed et ipsae iuxta erant
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.
stantibus illis stabant et cum elevatis elevabantur spiritus enim vitae erat in eis
18 Then the glory of the Lord left the entrance to the Temple and stopped above the cherubim.
et egressa est gloria Domini a limine templi et stetit super cherubin
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.
et elevantia cherubin alas suas exaltata sunt a terra coram me et illis egredientibus rotae quoque subsecutae sunt et stetit in introitu portae domus Domini orientalis et gloria Dei Israhel erat super ea
20 These were the beings I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar. I knew that they were cherubim.
ipsum est animal quod vidi subter Deum Israhel iuxta fluvium Chobar et intellexi quia cherubin essent
21 Each had four faces and four wings and had what looked like human hands under their wings.
quattuor per quattuor vultus uni et quattuor alae uni et similitudo manus hominis sub alis eorum
22 Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each of them moved directly ahead.
et similitudo vultuum eorum ipsi vultus quos videram iuxta fluvium Chobar et intuitus eorum et impetus singulorum ante faciem suam ingredi
