Ezekiel 10
1 Then looked I and lo! in the expanse which was over the head of the cherubim as a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne, appeared over them.
Ngasengibona, khangela-ke, emkhathini owawungaphezu kwekhanda lamakherubhi kwakulokunjengelitshe lesafire, kunjengokubonakala komfanekiso wesihlalo sobukhosi; kwabonakala phezu kwawo.
2 Then said he unto the man clothed in linen—then said he Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with live coals of fire from between the cherubim, and throw over the city. So he went in before mine eyes.
Wasekhuluma emuntwini ogqoke ilembu elicolekileyo, wathi: Ngena ngaphakathi kwamavili, ngaphansi kwekherubhi, ugcwalise intende zezandla zakho ngamalahle omlilo avela phakathi kwamakherubhi, uwahlakaze phezu komuzi. Wasengena phambi kwamehlo ami.
3 Now the cherubim were standing on the right side of the house when the man went in, —and, the, cloud filled the inner court,
Njalo amakherubhi ayemi ngakwesokunene kwendlu, lapho lowomuntu engena; iyezi laseligcwalisa iguma elingaphakathi.
4 Then arose the glory of Yahweh from off the cherub, unto the threshold of the house, —and the house was filled with the cloud, and the, court, was filled with the brightness of the glory of Yahweh.
Inkazimulo yeNkosi yasiphakama isuka phezu kwekherubhi, phezu kombundu wendlu; indlu yasigcwaliswa liyezi, leguma lagcwala ukukhanya kwenkazimulo yeNkosi.
5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard, as far as the outer court, —like the voice of the Almighty GOD when he speaketh,
Lomdumo wempiko zamakherubhi wezwakala kwaze kwaba segumeni elingaphandle, njengelizwi likaNkulunkulu uSomandla nxa ekhuluma.
6 So then it came to pass— when he commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim, then went he in and stood beside the wheel.
Kwasekusithi isimlayile umuntu ogqoke ilembu elicolekileyo isithi: Thatha umlilo phakathi kwamavili, phakathi kwamakherubhi; wangena, wema duze kwevili.
7 And the cherub put forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took up thereof and gave into the hands of him who was clothed with linen, —who took [it] and went forth,
Ikherubhi laseliselulela isandla salo sisuka phakathi kwamakherubhi kuwo umlilo owawuphakathi kwamakherubhi, lawuthatha, lawubeka ezandleni zalowo owayembethe ilembu elicolekileyo; owawuthatha waphuma.
8 Now the cherubim appeared to have. the likeness of the hand of a man, under their wings.
Kwasekubonakala kiwo amakherubhi isimo sesandla somuntu ngaphansi kwempiko zawo.
9 Then looked I. and lo! four wheels by the cherubim—one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub, —and the appearance of the wheels was to look upon like a Tarshish stone;
Ngasengibona, khangela-ke amavili amane eceleni kwamakherubhi, ivili elilodwa eceleni kwelinye ikherubhi, levili elilodwa eceleni kwelinye ikherubhi; lokubonakala kwamavili kwakunjengombala welitshe lebherule.
10 and as for their appearance, one likeness, had they four, -as might be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
Mayelana lokubonakala kwawo, womane ayelesimo sinye, njengokungathi livili eliphakathi kwevili.
11 When they went, upon their four sides, they went, they turned not when they went, for to the place whithersoever the head turned, after it, they went, they turned not when they went.
Ekuhambeni kwawo, ahamba ngenhlangothi zawo zozine, awaphendukanga ekuhambeni kwawo, kodwa indawo lapho ikhanda elalikhangele khona, ayilandela, awaphendukanga ekuhambeni kwawo.
12 And all their flesh, and their back, and their hands and their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes round about, even their wheels which they four had
Lomzimba wawo wonke, lemihlane yawo, lezandla zawo, lempiko zawo, lamavili, kwakugcwele amehlo inhlangothi zonke, amavili azo zozine ezazilawo.
13 To the wheels—to them, was made the cry— O whirling wheel! in mine ears.
Mayelana lamavili, kwamenyezwa kiwo endlebeni zami ukuthi: Vili!
14 And four faces had each one, —the first face, was the face of a cherub, and, the second face, was the face of a man and the third was the face of a lion. and the fourth, was the face of an eagle.
Njalo yilelo lalelo lalilobuso obune; ubuso bokuqala babuyibuso bekherubhi, lobuso besibili babuyibuso bomuntu, lobesithathu buyibuso besilwane, lobesine buyibuso belinqe.
15 Then arose the cherubim, —the same, was the living one, which I had seen by the river Chebar.
Amakherubhi aseziphakamisa. Lesi yisidalwa esiphilayo engasibona ngasemfuleni iKebari.
16 When the cherubim went, then went the wheels beside them, —and when the cherubim lifted up their wings, to arise from off the earth, the wheels themselves turned not from beside them;
Kwathi lapho amakherubhi ehamba, amavili ahamba eceleni kwawo; lalapho amakherubhi ephakamisa impiko zawo ukuze enyuke asuke emhlabeni, lawomavili kawaphendukanga esuka eceleni lawo futhi.
17 when they stood, these stood, and when they arose, these arose with them, —for, the spirit of the living one, was in them.
Lapho esima, lawo ema; lalapho ephakama, lawo aphakama; ngoba umoya wezidalwa eziphilayo wawukiwo.
18 And when the glory of Yahweh went forth from off the threshold of the house, —and stood over the cherubim,
Inkazimulo yeNkosi yasiphuma yasuka phezu kombundu wendlu, yema phezu kwamakherubhi.
19 then the cherubim uplifted their wings and arose from the earth before mine eyes as they went forth, the wheels also in unison with them, —and it stood at the opening of the gate of the house of Yahweh that was toward the east, with the glory of the God of Israel over them, above.
Amakherubhi asephakamisa impiko zawo, enyuka esuka emhlabeni phambi kwamehlo ami, lapho ephuma, lamavili lawo ayemaqondana lawo; njalo yilelo lalelo lema emnyango wesango elingasempumalanga kwendlu yeNkosi; lenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli yayiphezu kwawo ngaphezulu.
20 The same, was the living one which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar, - then knew I that cherubim, they were.
Lesi yisidalwa esiphilayo engasibona ngaphansi kukaNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli ngasemfuleni iKebari; ngasengisazi ukuthi ngamakherubhi.
21 Four faces severally, had each one, and four wings, had each one, —and the likeness of the hands of a man, was under their wings.
Yilelo lalelo lalilobuso obune, lalelo lalelo lilempiko ezine; lesimo sezandla zomuntu singaphansi kwempiko zazo.
22 And as for the likeness of their faces, They were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves— every one straight before him, did they go.
Lesimo sobuso bawo sasiyibuso engabubona ngasemfuleni iKebari, ukubonakala kwawo, lawo ngokwawo. Ahamba, yilelo lalelo ngaphambi kobuso balo.
