Ezekiel 1
1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, as I [was] among the captives by the river of Chebar, [that] the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
EIA keia, i ke kanakolu o ka makahiki, i ka malama ha, i ka la alima o ka mahina, e noho ana au iwaena o ka poe pio ma ka muliwai o Kebara, hamama mai la ka lani, a ike aku la au i na hihio o ke Akua.
2 In the fifth [day] of the month, which [was] the fifth year of king Jehoiachin’s captivity,
I ka la alima o ka malama, oia ka lima o ka makahiki o ke pio ana o ke alii o Iehoiakima,
3 The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him.
Hiki maopopo mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Ezekiela ke keiki a Buzi i ke kahuna ma ka aina o Kaledea, ma ka muliwai Kebara; a malaila i kau mai ai ka lima o Iehova maluna iho ona.
4 And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness [was] about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
Nana aku la an, aia hoi he puahiohio e hele mai ana mai ke kukulu akau mai, he ao nui, a me ke ahi e pakaawili ana ia ia iho, he olinolino a puui ia, a mai waenakonu ona e like i ka nana aku rae ke keleawe olinolino mai loko mai o ke ahi.
5 Also out of the midst thereof [came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
A mai waenakonu mai ona ka like ana o na mea ola eha: eia ko lakou ano, he ano like me ko ke kanaka ko lakou.
6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
Papaha ko lakou mau helehelena, a papaha ko lakou mau eheu.
7 And their feet [were] straight feet; and the sole of their feet [was] like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.
O ko lakou mau wawae, he mau wawae pololei, a o ka manea o ko lakou mau wawae, ua like ia me ka manea o ka wawae o ke keiki bipi: olinolino mai la lakou e like me ke keleawe i hoohualiia i ka nana aku.
8 And [they had] the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.
He mau lima kanaka ko lakou malalo iho o ko lakou mau eheu, ma na aoao eha; no lakou hoi ko lakou mau helehelena a me ko lakou mau eheu.
9 Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
O ko lakou mau eheu ua hui pu kekahi me kekahi; aole i haliu ae i ko lakou hele ana, hele pololei lakou kela mea keia mea mamua.
10 As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.
A o ka like ana o ko lakou mau helehelena, he helehelena no ke kanaka a me ka helehelena o ka liona ko lakou a eha ma ka aoao akau, a me ka helehelena o ka bipikauo ma ka aoao hema; a o ka helehelena o ka aeto ko lakou a eha.
11 Thus [were] their faces: and their wings [were] stretched upward; two [wings] of every one [were] joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
Pela ko lakou mau helehelena; a kikoo aku ko lakou mau eheu maluna; ua hui na eheu elua o kela mea keia mea, a ua uhi na eheu elua i ko lakou mau kino.
12 And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; [and] they turned not when they went.
Hele pololei ae lakou mamua kela mea keia mea: ma kahi e hele ai ka uhane, malaila lakou i hele ai: aole lakou i haliu ae i ko lakou hele ana.
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance [was] like burning coals of fire, [and] like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
A o ka helehelena like ana o na mea ola, ua like ko lakou ano i ka nana aku me na lanahu ahi e a ana, a me na ipukukui; hele ia iwaena o na mea ola; olinolino ke ahi, a mailoko aku o ke ahi i puka ai ka uwila.
14 And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
A holo aku la na mea ola a hoi mai la me he anapu ana la o ka uwila i ka nana aku.
15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
A i ko'u nana ana'ku i na mea ola, aia hoi, o ka huila hookahi ma ka honua e pili ana i na mea ola, me kona mau aoao eha.
16 The appearance of the wheels and their work [was] like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work [was] as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
O ke ano o na huila, a me ko lakou hanaia'na ua like me ka topasa i ka nana aku, hookahi ano ko lakou eha: a o ko lakou ano i ka nana aku a me ko lakou hanaia'na, me he huila la iloko o kekahi huila.
17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and] they turned not when they went.
I ko lakou hele ana, hele lakou ma ko lakou mau aoao eha, aole i haliu ae i ko lakou hele ana.
18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings [were] full of eyes round about them four.
A o ko lakou mau apo, ua kiekie lakou he mea weliweli, a ua paapu ko lakou mau apo i na maka, a puni lakou a eha.
19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
A hele na mea ola, hele pu ae la na huila ma ka pili o lakou, a kaikaiia'ku na mea ola mai ka honua aku, kaikaiia aku no hoi na huila.
20 Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither [was their] spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
Aia ma kahi e hele ai ka uhane, malaila lakou i hele ai, malaila e hele ai ka uhane, ua kaikai pu ia na huila me lakou; no ka mea, maloko o na hulla ka uhane o ka mea ola.
21 When those went, [these] went; and when those stood, [these] stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
A hele kela mau mea, hele hoi keia mau mea, a ku kela mau mea, ku no hoi keia mau mea; a i ka wa i kaikaiia'ku kela mau mea mai ka honua aku, alaila kaikai pu ia na huila me lakou, no ka mea, maloko o na huila ka uhane o ka mea ola.
22 And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature [was] as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.
A o ka like ana o ka lani maluna o na poo o na mea ola ua like ia i ka nana aku me ke aniani weliweli, i hoholaia maluna o ko lakou mau poo iluna.
23 And under the firmament [were] their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
A malalo ae o ka lani, pololei no ko lakou mau eheu ku pono kekahi i kekahi; elua ko kekahi me ko kekahi i uhi ma keia aoao, a elua hoi ko kekahi me ko kekahi i uhi ma kela aoao o ko lakou mau kino.
24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
A i ko lakou helo ana, lohe aku la au i ka halulu ana o ko lakou mau eheu e like me ka halulu ana o na wai he nui no, me he leo la o ka Mea mana loa; ka leo o ka halulu e like me ka leo o ka puali kaua; a ku lakou, kuu iho la lakou i ko lakou mau eheu ilalo.
25 And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.
A he leo no mai ka lani mai iluna o ko lakou mau poo, i ka wa i ku ai lakou, a ua kuu iho ko lakou mau eheu.
26 And above the firmament that [was] over their heads [was] the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne [was] the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
A maluna o ka lani iluna o ko lakou mau poo, he mea like me ka nohoalii, me he pohaku sapire la i ka nana aku; a maluna o ka mea like me ka nohoalii, he mea like me ke kanaka maluna iho ona i ka nana aku.
27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
A ike aku la au i ka mea like me ke keleawe olinolino, i ka nana aku, e like me ke ahi i ka nana aku a puni iloko, mai ka ikea ana o kona puhaka, a maluna aku, a mai ka ikea ana o kona puhaku ilalo, ike aku la au i ka mea like me ke ahi i ka nana aku, a he olinolino kona a puni.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so [was] the appearance of the brightness round about. This [was] the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw [it], I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
E like me ke ano o ke anuenue iloko o ke ao i ka la ua, pela ke ano o ka olinolino a puni i ka nana aku. Oia ka mea ikeia o ke ano o ka nani o Iehova. A ike au, moe iho la au ilalo ke alo, a lohe au i ka leo o kekahi e olelo ana:
