Ezekiel 1
1 And it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day of the month I being in the midst of them of the captivity, by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
Sa ikatatlumpung taon, sa ikaapat na buwan, at sa ikalimang araw ng buwan, nangyaring naninirahan akong kasama ng mga bihag sa tabi ng Kanal Kebar. Nabuksan ang kalangitan, at nakakita ako ng mga pangitain ng Diyos!
2 On the fifth of the month, that was the fifth year of the captivity of King Jehoiachin,
Noong ikalimang araw ng buwan na iyon—ito ang ikalimang taon ng pagkatapon kay Haring Jehoiakin,
3 in very deed came the word of Yahweh unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar, —yea the hand of Yahweh, came on him there.
dumating nang may kapangyarihan ang salita ni Yahweh kay Ezekiel na anak ni Buzi at ang pari sa lupain ng mga Caldeo sa tabi ng Kanal Kebar. Dumating ang kamay ni Yahweh sa kaniya roon.
4 So then I beheld and lo! a tempestuous wind coming out of the North, a great cloud and a fire catching hold of itself, and it had a brightness round about, —and out of the midst thereof, as burnished copper to look upon out of the midst of the fire;
Pagkatapos, tumingin ako, at mayroong dumarating na malakas na hangin mula sa hilaga—isang malaking ulap na may kumikinang na apoy sa loob nito, at liwanag ang nasa palibot at loob nito, at kulay ng ambar ang apoy sa loob ng ulap.
5 and out of the midst thereof, a likeness of four living ones, and this was their appearance, the likeness of a man, had they;
Sa gitna ay anyo ng apat na buhay na nilalang. Ito ang kanilang wangis: mayroon silang anyong tao,
6 and four faces each, and four wings each, had they;
ngunit ang bawat isa sa kanila ay mayroong apat na mukha, at ang bawat isa sa mga nilalang ay may apat na pakpak.
7 and their feet were straight feet, —and the sole of their feet was like the sole of the foot of a calf, but sparkling, as shining bronze to look upon;
Tuwid ang kanilang mga binti, ngunit ang talampakan ng kanilang mga paa ay tulad ng mga kuko ng isang guya na makinang tulad ng pinakintab na tanso.
8 and the hands of a man! were under their wings, on their four sides, —and their faces and their wings belonged to the four of them:
Gayon pa man, mayroon silang mga kamay ng tao sa ilalim ng kanilang mga pakpak sa lahat ng apat na dako. Sa kanilang apat, ang kanilang mga mukha at mga pakpak ay ganito:
9 joined to each other, were their wings, —they turned not when they went, each one straight before him, did they go;
ang kanilang mga pakpak ay sumasagi sa mga pakpak ng kasunod na nilalang, at hindi sila lumiliko habang umuusad, sa halip, ang bawat isa ay umusad pasulong.
10 and the likeness of their faces was the face of a man, with the face of a lion to the right of the four of them, and the face of an ox on the left, of the four of them, —the face of an eagle, also had they four;
Ang wangis ng kanilang mga mukha ay tulad ng mukha ng isang tao, sunod, ang mukha ng isang leon sa kanan, sunod, ang mukha ng isang toro sa kaliwa, at sa huli, ang mukha ng isang agila.
11 and their wings were spread above, — two of each joined one another, and two covered their bodies;
Ganyan ang kanilang mga mukha, at ang kanilang mga pakpak ay nakabuka sa itaas, upang ang bawat nilalang ay may pares ng mga pakpak na nakasagi sa pakpak ng isa pang nilalang, at isang pares din ng mga pakpak ang nakatakip sa kanilang mga katawan.
12 and each one straight before him, did they go, —whithersoever the spirit was minded to go, they went, they turned not when they went.
Ang bawat isa ay umusad pasulong, upang saanman sila utusang pumunta ng Espiritu, pumunta sila nang hindi lumilingon.
13 As for the likeness of the living ones, their appearance was like live coals of fire burning up like the appearance of torches, the same went to and fro between the living ones, —and the fire had brightness and out of the fire, went forth a lightning.
Tulad ng mga nagliliyab na baga ang mga buhay na nilalang, o tulad ng mga sulo, may maliwanag na apoy din na gumagalaw kasama ng mga nilalang, at may mga kumikislap na kidlat.
14 And the living ones ran and returned, —like the appearance of a flash of lightning.
Mabilis na gumagalaw nangpabalik-balik ang mga buhay na nilalang, at mukha silang kidlat!
15 And I looked at the living ones, —and lo! one wheel upon the earth beside the living ones for each of his four faces,
At tumingin ako sa mga buhay na nilalang, may isang gulong sa ilalim na nasa tabi ng mga buhay na nilalang.
16 The appearance of the wheels and of their structure was like a Tarshish-stone to look upon, and they four had one likeness, —and their appearance and their structure were just as would be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
Ito ang wangis at balangkas ng mga gulong: ang bawat gulong ay tulad ng berilyo, at magkakatulad lahat ang apat, tila binabagtas ng isang gulong ang isa pang gulong.
17 Upon their four sides, when they went, so did they go, —they turned not when they went.
Kapag gumulong ang mga gulong, nakakapunta sila sa bawat direksyon nang hindi lumilingon.
18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were terrible, -and their rings full of eyes round about, had they four.
Para naman sa mga gilid naman ng mga ito, matataas at nakakatakot, sapagkat ang mga gilid ay puno ng mga mata paikot!
19 And when the living ones went, the wheels went beside them, —and when the living ones were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up:
Kapag gumagalaw ang mga buhay na nilalang, gumagalaw ang mga gulong sa tabi nila. Kapag pumapaitaas ang mga buhay na nilalang mula sa lupa, pumapaitaas din ang mga gulong.
20 whithersoever the spirit was minded to go, they went—thither was the spirit minded to go, —and the wheels would be lifted up along with them, for the spirit of the living one was in the wheels:
Saanman pumupunta ang Espiritu, pumupunta sila kung saan tumutungo ang Espiritu, pumapaitaas sa tabi nila ang mga gulong, sapagkat ang espiritu ng mga buhay na nilalang ay nasa mga gulong.
21 when they went, these went, and when they stood, these stood, —and when they were lifted up from off the earth, the wheels were lifted up along with them, for the spirit of the living one was in the wheels.
Kapag gumagalaw ang mga nilalang, gumagalaw rin ang mga gulong, at kapag tumitigil ang mga nilalang, tumitigil ang mga gulong, kapag pumapaitaas mula sa lupa ang mga nilalang, pumapaitaas ang mga gulong sa tabi nila, sapagkat ang espiritu ng mga buhay na nilalang ay nasa mga gulong.
22 And there was a likeness over the heads of the living one—an expanse, like terrible crystal to look upon, -stretched forth over their heads above.
Sa ibabaw ng mga ulo ng mga buhay na nilalang ay may tulad ng isang napakalaking pabilog na bubong, tulad ito ng kahanga-hangang kristal na nakabuka sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo.
23 And under the expanse, their wings were straight, one towards another, —each one had two covering on this side, and each one had two covering on that side, their bodies.
Sa ilalim ng pabilog na bubong, ang bawat isa sa mga pakpak ng nilalang ay nakabuka nang tuwid at nakasagi sa mga pakpak ng isa pang nilalang. Ang bawat buhay na nilalang ay may isang pares din upang takpan ang kanilang mga sarili—ang bawat isa ay may isang pares upang takpan ang kaniyang sariling katawan.
24 And I heard the sound of their wings, as the sound of many waters, as the sound of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of a storm as the sound of a host, —when they stood, they let down their wings,
At narinig ko ang tunog ng kanilang mga pakpak! Tulad ng ingay ng rumaragasang tubig. Tulad ng tinig ng Makapangyarihan. Kapag gumagalaw sila, nagkakaroon ng tunog ng isang bagyong ulan. Tulad ito ng tunog ng isang hukbo. Kapag tumitigil sila, ibinababa nila ang kanilang mga pakpak.
25 And there was a voice above the expanse that was over their head, —when they stood, they let down their wings.
At isang tinig ang nagmula sa itaas ng pabilog na bubong sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo kapag tumitigil sila at ibinababa ang kanilang mga pakpak.
26 And above the expanse that was over their heads, as the appearance of a sapphire stone, was the likeness of a throne, —and upon the likeness of a throne, was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.
Sa itaas ng pabilog na bubong sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo ay may anyo ng isang tronong tulad ng safiro, at ang nasa trono ay ang wangis ng isang tulad ng tao.
27 And I saw as burnished copper to look upon, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upwards and from the appearance of his loins and downwards, saw I as the appearance of fire, and he had brightness round about:
Nakita ko ang isang anyong tulad ng nagliliwanag na metal na may apoy sa loob mula sa kaniyang baywang pataas, mula sa kaniyang baywang pababa ay tulad ng apoy at liwanag ang nasa buong paligid.
28 as the appearance of the bow which is in a cloud on a day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about, that was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Yahweh, and when I saw, I fell upon my face, and heard a voice of one speaking.
Tulad ito ng isang bahagharing lumilitaw sa mga ulap sa isang maulang araw—at tulad ng maliwanag na ilaw ang pumapaligid dito. Nagpakita ito tulad ng anyo ng kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh. Nang makita ko ito, nagpatirapa ako, at narinig ko ang isang tinig na nagsasalita.
