Ezekiel 1
1 And it comes to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], on the fifth of the month, and I [am] in the midst of the expulsion by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of God.
Alò, li te vin rive nan trèzyèm ane, sou senkyèm jou a Katriyèm mwa a, pandan mwen te akote rivyè Kebar a, pami egzile yo, ke syèl yo te louvri, e mwen te wè vizyon a Bondye.
2 In the fifth of the month—it is the fifth year of the expulsion of King Jehoiachin—
(Sou senkyèm jou nan mwa a, nan senkyèm ane egzil a Wa Jojakin nan,
3 the word of YHWH has certainly been to Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar, and there is on him there a hand of YHWH.
Pawòl SENYÈ a te rive eksprè a Ézéchiel, prèt la, fis a Buzi, nan peyi Kaldeyen yo akote rivyè Kebar a; epi la, men SENYÈ a te vini sou li.)
4 And I look, and behold, a turbulent wind is coming from the north, a great cloud, and fire catching itself, and brightness to it all around, and out of its midst as the color of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.
Pandan mwen t ap gade, men gade byen, yon van tanpèt te vini soti nan nò, yon gwo nwaj ak loraj ki t ap tire san rete; yon limyè byen klere te antoure l e nan mitan l, yon bagay tankou metal ki klere nan mitan dife a.
5 And out of its midst [is] a likeness of four living creatures, and this [is] their appearance; a likeness of man [is] to them,
Anndan li, te gen fòm ki te sanble kat kreyati vivan. Men ki jan yo te parèt: yo te gen yon fòm tankou moun.
6 and each had four faces and each of them had four wings,
Yo chak te gen kat figi ak kat zèl.
7 and their feet [are] straight feet, and the sole of their feet [is] as a sole of a calf’s foot, and they are sparkling as the color of bright bronze;
Janm yo te dwat, pye yo te tankou zago jenn bèf, e yo te klere tankou bwonz poli.
8 and on their four sides [each had] hands of man under their wings; and [each] of the four had their faces and their wings;
Anba zèl yo, nan kat kote yo, te gen men a moun. Yo kat te gen figi ak zèl yo konsa:
9 their wings [are] joining to one another, they do not turn around in their going, they each go straight forward.
Zèl pa yo te jwente youn lòt. Yo pa t vire lè yo te deplase. Yo chak te ale tou dwat devan.
10 As for the likeness of their faces, [each had] the face of a man, and toward the right the four had the face of a lion, and on the left the four had the face of an ox, and the four had the face of an eagle.
Pou fòm a figi yo a, yo chak te gen figi tankou a yon moun. Toule kat te gen figi a yon lyon adwat, figi a yon towo agoch, e toule kat te gen figi a yon èg.
11 And their faces and their wings dividing from above, of each [are] two joining together, and two are covering their bodies.
Se konsa figi yo te ye. Zèl yo te ouvri anlè. Yo chak te gen de ki te touche a yon lòt kreyati e de ki te kouvri kò yo.
12 And they each go straight forward, to where the Spirit is to go, they go, they do not turn around in their going.
Epi yo chak te ale tou dwat devan. Nenpòt kote lespri a te prèt pou ale, yo ta ale, san menm vire pandan yo t ap prale a.
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearances [are] as coals of fire—burning as the appearance of lamps; it is going up and down between the living creatures, and brightness [is] to the fire, and lightning is going forth out of the fire.
Nan mitan kreyati vivan yo, te gen yon bagay ki te sanble ak chabon dife, tankou tòch ki t ap file fè ale retou pami kreyati vivan yo. Dife a te klere e loray te vòltije soti nan dife a.
14 And the living creatures are running, and turning back, as the appearance of the flash.
Epi kreyati vivan yo te kouri fè ale retou tankou kout loray.
15 And I see the living creatures, and behold, one wheel [is] in the earth, near the living creatures, at its four faces.
Alò, pandan mwen t ap gade kreyati vivan yo, gade byen, te gen yon wou sou tè a akote kreyati vivan yo, pou chak nan kat fas de yo.
16 The appearance of the wheels and their works [is] as the color of beryl, and the four of them had one likeness, and their appearances and their works [are] as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
Wou yo te sanble, jan yo te fèt la, tankou yon wòch krizolit briyan. E toule kat te gen menm fòm. Nan aparans la, jan yo fè l la, yo te fèt konsi yon wou te anndan yon lòt wou.
17 On their four sides, in their going they go, they do not turn around in their going.
Nenpòt lè yo deplase, yo te deplase nan nenpòt nan kat direksyon yo, san menm vire pandan yo t ap deplase a.
18 As for their rings, they are both high and fearful, and their rings, of the four of them, [are] full of eyes around them.
Wotè a wou yo te tèlman wo. Yo te etonan. Arebò toule kat te plen ak zye toutotou l nèt.
19 And in the going of the living creatures, the wheels go beside them, and in the living creatures being lifted up from off the earth, the wheels are lifted up.
Nenpòt lè kreyati vivan yo te deplase, wou yo te deplase avèk yo. Epi nenpòt lè kreyati vivan yo te leve kite tè a, wou yo te leve tou.
20 To where the Spirit is to go, they go, there the Spirit [is] to go, and the wheels are lifted up alongside them, for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
Nenpòt kote lespri a te prèt pou ale, yo ta ale nan direksyon sa a. Epi wou yo te leve toupre bò kote yo; paske lespri a kreyati vivan yo te nan wou yo.
21 In their going, they go; and in their standing, they stand; and in their being lifted up from off the earth, the wheels are lifted up alongside them; for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
Nenpòt kote sa yo te ale, sila yo te ale tou. Lè sa yo te kanpe an plas, sila yo te kanpe an plas tou. Epi nenpòt lè sa yo te monte kite tè a, wou yo te leve toupre bò kote yo; paske lespri a kreyati vivan yo te nan wou yo.
22 And over the heads of the living creatures—a likeness of an expanse, as the color of the fearful ice, stretched out over their heads from above.
Alò, anwo tèt a kreyati vivan yo, te gen yon bagay tankou yon gwo espas, tankou yon briyans mèvèy kon kristal, ki te ouvri byen laj sou tèt yo.
23 And under the expanse their wings [are] straight, one toward [its] sister; two [wings] of each are covering them, and two [wings] of each are covering their bodies.
Anba gwo espas la, zèl yo te lonje dwat, youn anvè lòt. Yo chak te gen de zèl ki te kouvri kò l tou, youn yon kote e youn yon lòt kote.
24 And I hear the noise of their wings, as the noise of many waters, as the noise of the Mighty One, in their going—the noise of tumult, as the noise of a camp, in their standing they let their wings fall.
Anplis, mwen te tande son a zèl yo tankou son anpil gwo dlo pandan yo t ap prale, tankou vwa a Toupwisan an, yon son a gwo boulvèsman, tankou son a yon lame ki nan kan li. Nenpòt lè yo sispann fè mouvman, yo lage desann zèl yo.
25 And there is a voice from above the expanse, that [is] above their head: in their standing they let their wings fall.
Konsa, te sòti yon vwa depi anwo gran espas lan ki te sou tèt pa yo. Nenpòt lè yo te sispann fè mouvman, yo te lage desann zèl yo.
26 And above the expanse that [is] over their head, as an appearance of a sapphire stone, [is] the likeness of a throne, and on the likeness of the throne a likeness, as the appearance of man on it from above.
Alò, anwo gwo espas ki te anwo tèt yo a, te gen yon bagay ki te sanble ak yon twòn, tankou yon pyè safì nan aparans. Epi sou sa ki te sanble a yon twòn nan, byen wo, te gen yon fòm ak aparans a yon nonm.
27 And I see as the color of electrum, as the appearance of fire all around within it, from the appearance of His loins and upward; and from the appearance of His loins and downward, I have seen as the appearance of fire, and brightness [is] all around Him.
Sa mwen te wè, te soti nan aparans a ren Li ak piwo, yon bagay tankou metal klere ki te sanble dife toutotou anndan l. Soti nan aparans a ren Li e piba, mwen te wè yon bagay tankou dife, epi te gen yon ekla limyè ki te antoure Li.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in a cloud in a day of rain, so [is] the appearance of the brightness all around.
Menm jan ak aparans a lakansyèl nan nwaj yo nan jou l ap fè lapli, konsa aparans a ekla limyè ki te antoure li a te ye. Konsa aparans a imaj a glwa a SENYÈ a te ye. Lè m te wè l, mwen te tonbe sou figi mwen, e mwen te tande yon vwa ki t ap pale.
