Ezekiel 10
1 THEN I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
Então olhei, e eis que sobre o firmamento que estava sobre a cabeça dos querubins, havia como uma pedra de safira, com a aparência de um trono, que apareceu sobre eles.
2 And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.
E falou ao homem vestido de linho, dizendo: Entra por entre as rodas debaixo dos querubins e enche tuas mãos de brasas acesas dentre os querubins, e as espalha sobre a cidade. E entrou diante de meus olhos.
3 Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
E os querubins estavam à direita da casa quando aquele homem entrou; e a nuvem encheu o pátio de dentro.
4 Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord’s glory.
Então a glória do SENHOR se levantou de sobre o querubim para a entrada da casa; e a casa se encheu de uma nuvem, e o pátio se encheu do resplendor da glória do SENHOR.
5 And the sound of the cherubims’ wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
E o som das asas dos querubins era ouvido até o pátio de fora, como a voz do Deus Todo-Poderoso quando fala.
6 And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
E sucedeu que, quando ele mandou ao homem vestido de linho, dizendo: Toma fogo dentre as rodas, dentre os querubins, então ele entrou, e ficou junto às rodas.
7 And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
E um querubim estendeu sua mão dentre os querubins ao fogo que estava entre os querubins, e tomou-o, e o deu nas mãos do que estava vestido de linho; o qual [o] tomou, e saiu.
8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man’s hand under their wings.
E apareceu nos querubins a forma de uma mão humana debaixo de suas asas.
9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
Então olhei, e eis que quatro rodas estavam junto aos querubins, uma roda junto a um querubim, e outra roda junto ao outro querubim; e o aparência das rodas era como o de pedra de berilo.
10 And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
Quanto à aparência delas, as quatro tinham uma mesma forma, como se estivesse uma roda no meio da outra.
11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
Quando se moviam, movimentavam-se sobre seus quatro lados; não se viravam quando moviam, mas para o lugar aonde se voltava a cabeça, iam atrás; nem se viravam quando moviam.
12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.
E toda o seu corpo, suas costas, suas mãos, suas asas, e as rodas, estavam cheias de olhos ao redor; os quatro tinham suas rodas.
13 As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.
Quanto às rodas, eu ouvi que foram chamadas de “roda giratória”.
14 And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
E cada um tinha quatro rostos: o primeiro rosto era de querubim; o segundo rosto, de homem; o terceiro rosto, de leão; e o quarto rosto, de águia.
15 And the cherubims were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
E os querubins se levantaram; este é o mesmo ser que vi no rio de Quebar.
16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
E quando os querubins se moviam, as rodas se moviam junto com eles; e quando os querubins levantavam suas asas para se levantarem da terra, as rodas também não se viravam de junto a eles.
17 When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
Quando eles paravam, elas paravam; e quando eles se levantavam, elas levantavam com eles: porque o espírito dos seres estava nelas.
18 Then the glory of the Lord departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.
Então a glória do SENHOR saiu de sobre a entrada da casa, e se pôs sobre os querubins.
19 And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also were beside them, and every one stood at the door of the east gate of the Lord’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
E os querubins levantaram suas asas, e subiram da terra diante de meus olhos, quando saíram; e as rodas estavam ao lado deles; e pararam à entrada da porta oriental da casa do SENHOR, e a glória do Deus de Israel estava por cima deles.
20 This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubims.
Estes são os seres que vi debaixo do Deus de Israel no rio de Quebar; e notei que eram querubins.
21 Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
Cada um tinha quatro rostos, e cada um quatro asas; e havia semelhança de mãos humanas debaixo de seus asas.
22 And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
E a semelhança de seus rostos era a dos rostos que vi junto ao rio de Quebar, suas aparências, e eles mesmos; cada um se movia na direção de seu rosto.
