< 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.
Mehwɛe, na mihuu biribi te sɛ bibiri ahengua a ɛsensɛn ntrɛwmu a ɛwɔ kerubim apampam no so.
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.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima a ofura nwera no se, “Kɔhyɛ nkyimii a ɛwɔ kerubim ase no mu. Fi kerubim no mu fa nnyansramma hyɛ wo nsa ma na tow pete kuropɔn no so.” Migu so rehwɛ no, ɔkɔhyɛɛ mu.
3 The cherubim were standing on the south side of the Temple when the man went in. A cloud filled the inner court.
Afei na kerubim no gyinagyina asɔredan no anafo fam bere a ɔbarima no kɔhyɛn mu no, na omununkum kɔhyɛɛ fam adiwo hɔ mu ma.
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.
Na Awurade anuonyam maa ne ho so fii kerubim no atifi kɔɔ asɔredan no abobow ano. Omununkum no yɛɛ asɔredan no ma, na Awurade anuonyam hyerɛn yɛɛ adiwo hɔ ma.
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.
Bere a ɔrekasa no na wɔte kerubim ntaban no nnyigyei no wɔ mfikyiri fam adiwo hɔ te sɛ Otumfo Nyankopɔn nne.
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.
Bere a Awurade hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ofura nwera no se, “Yi nnyansramma fi nkyimii no mu, fi kerubim no ase no,” ɔbarima no kɔɔ mu kogyinaa nkyimii no baako ho.
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.
Afei kerubim no mu baako teɛɛ ne nsa hyɛɛ nnyansramma a ɛwɔ wɔn mu no mu. Ɔfaa mu bi de hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ofura nwera no nsam, na ɔno nso gye de fii adi.
8 (All the cherubim had what looked like human hands under their wings.)
(Na wohu biribi te sɛ onipa nsa wɔ kerubim no ntaban ase.)
9 I saw four wheels next to the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. The wheels shone like topaz.
Mehwɛe, na mihuu nkyimii anan a baako biara gyina kerubim nkyɛn, na nkyimii no pa yerɛw yerɛw te sɛ sikabereɛbo.
10 All four wheels looked the same, and had a wheel within a wheel, set crossways.
Sɛnea ɛte no de, na nkyimii no nyinaa sesɛ; biara wɔ nkyimii foforo hyɛ mu.
11 The cherubim could go in any direction they faced, moving without turning.
Sɛ wɔnam a, wɔn nyinaa de wɔn anim kyerɛ nea kerubim baako de nʼanim bɛkyerɛ no; nkyimii no nnan wɔn ho bere a kerubim no nam. Kerubim no kɔ tee wɔ nea eti no anim kyerɛ a ɔnnan ne ho.
12 The whole of their bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were covered in eyes, as were all four wheels.
Aniwa tuatua wɔn ho nyinaa, wɔn akyi, wɔn nsa ne wɔn ntaban ho nyinaa. Saa ara na nkyimii anan no nso te.
13 I heard the wheels being referred to as “the chariot wheels.”
Metee sɛ wɔrefrɛ nkyimii no se, “mfɛtɛ nkyimii.”
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.
Kerubim no mu biara wɔ anim anan. Anim baako te sɛ kerub, nea ɛto so abien te sɛ onipa anim, nea ɛto so abiɛsa te sɛ gyata anim, nea ɛto so anan te sɛ ɔkɔre anim.
15 Then the cherubim rose up in the air. They were the beings I'd seen beside the River Kebar.
Afei kerubim no maa wɔn ho so. Eyinom na na wɔyɛ ateasefo a na mahu wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no.
16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved alongside them. Even when they opened their wings to take off, the wheels stayed beside them.
Sɛ kerubim no keka wɔn ho a, nkyimii a ɛwowɔ wɔn ho no nso keka wɔn ho; na sɛ kerubim no trɛtrɛw wɔn ntaban mu ma wɔn ho so kɔ wim a, nkyimii no ka wɔn ho ara.
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.
Sɛ kerubim no gyinagyina dinn a, nkyimii no nso gyinagyina dinn, na sɛ kerubim no ma wɔn ho so a wɔne wɔn ma wɔn ho so, efisɛ honhom wɔ ateasefo no mu.
18 Then the glory of the Lord left the entrance to the Temple and stopped above the cherubim.
Afei Awurade anuonyam no fii asɔredan no abobow ano na ekogyinaa kerubim no atifi.
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.
Merehwɛ no, kerubim no trɛtrɛw wɔn ntaban mu maa wɔn ho so fii fam na nkyimii no ne wɔn kɔe. Wokogyinaa Awurade fi pon a ɛwɔ apuei fam no ano, na na Israel Nyankopɔn anuonyam wɔ wɔn atifi.
20 These were the beings I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar. I knew that they were cherubim.
Eyinom ne ateasefo a na mahu wɔn wɔ Israel Nyankopɔn ase wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no, na mihuu sɛ wɔyɛ kerubim.
21 Each had four faces and four wings and had what looked like human hands under their wings.
Wɔn mu biara wɔ anim anan ne ntaban anan na biribi a ɛte sɛ onipa nsa wowɔ wɔn ntaban ase.
22 Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each of them moved directly ahead.
Wɔn nyinaa anim te sɛ nea na mahu wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no. Wɔn mu biara kɔ nʼanim tee.
