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 Kebar, [that] the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
Pripetilo se je torej v tridesetem letu, v četrtem mesecu, na peti dan meseca, ko sem bil med ujetniki pri reki Kebár, da so se odprla nebesa in zagledal sem Božja videnja.
2 In the fifth [day] of the month, which [was] the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,
Na peti dan meseca, kar je bilo peto leto ujetništva kralja Jojahína,
3 The word of the LORD came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Kebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him.
je prišla Gospodova beseda izrecno k duhovniku Ezekielu, Buzijevemu sinu, v deželi Kaldejcev, pri reki Kebár in tam je bila nad njim Gospodova roka.
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 from the midst of it as the color of amber, from the midst of the fire.
Pogledal sem in glej, vrtinčast veter je prišel iz severa, velik oblak in ogenj ga je obsegal in okoli njega je bil sijaj in iz njegove srede kakor jantarjeva barva ven iz srede ognja.
5 Also from the midst of it [came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
Prav tako je iz njegove srede prišla podobnost štirih živih ustvarjenih bitij. In to je bil njihov videz; imela so podobnost človeka.
6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
Vsako je imelo štiri obraze in vsako je imelo štiri peruti.
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 color of burnished brass.
Njihova stopala so bila ravna stopala in podplat njihovih stopal je bil podoben telečjemu kopitu, in lesketala so se podobno barvi zloščenega brona.
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.
Pod svojimi perutmi, na svojih štirih straneh, so imela človeške roke in ta štiri so imela svoje obraze in svoje peruti.
9 Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
Njihove peruti so bile pridružene druga k drugi; niso se obračala, ko so hodila; šla so vsaka naravnost naprej.
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.
Kar zadeva podobnost njihovih obrazov, ta štiri so imela človeški obraz in obraz leva na desni strani in ta štiri so imela obraz vola na levi strani; ta štiri so imela tudi obraz orla.
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.
Takšni so bili njihovi obrazi. Njihove peruti so bile iztegnjene navzgor; dve peruti vsakega sta bili pridruženi druga k drugi, dve pa sta pokrivali njihova telesa.
12 And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; [and] they turned not when they went.
Hodila so vsako naravnost naprej. Kamor naj bi šel duh, [tja] so šla, in niso se obračala, ko so hodila.
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.
Kar se tiče podobnosti živih ustvarjenih bitij, je bil njihov videz podoben gorečemu ognjenemu oglju in podoben videzu svetilk. Ta je šel gor in dol med živimi ustvarjenimi bitji in ogenj je bil svetel in iz ognja se je dvigovalo bliskanje.
14 And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
Živa ustvarjena bitja so tekala in se vračala kakor videz bliska strele.
15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
Medtem ko sem gledal živa ustvarjena bitja, sem na zemlji zagledal eno kolo poleg živih ustvarjenih bitij, z njegovimi štirimi obrazi.
16 The appearance of the wheels and their work [was] like the color 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.
Videz koles in njihovo delo je bilo podobno barvi berila. Ta štiri so imela eno podobnost, in njihov videz in njihovo delo je bilo, kakor bi bilo kolo v sredi kolesa.
17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and] they returned not when they went.
Ko so hodila, so hodila na svoje štiri strani, in ko so hodila, se niso obračala.
18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings [were] full of eyes around them four.
Kar se tiče njihovih platišč, so bila tako visoka, da so bila grozna, in njihova platišča so bila polna oči naokoli teh štirih.
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.
Ko so živa ustvarjena bitja hodila, so poleg njih šla kolesa. In ko so bila živa ustvarjena bitja dvignjena z zemlje, so bila dvignjena kolesa.
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.
Kamor naj bi šel duh, so šla, tja naj bi šel njihov duh, in kolesa so bila dvignjena nasproti njih, kajti v kolesih je bil duh živega ustvarjenega bitja.
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.
Ko so tista šla, so šla ta; in ko so tista stala, so stala ta; in ko so bila tista dvignjena z zemlje, so bila kolesa dvignjena nasproti njih, kajti v kolesih je bil duh živega ustvarjenega bitja.
22 And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature [was] as the color of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.
Podobnost nebesnega svoda nad glavami živega ustvarjenega bitja je bila kakor barva strašnega kristala, razprostrtega zgoraj, nad njihovimi glavami.
23 And under the firmament [were] their wings straight, the one towards the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
Pod nebesnim svodom so bile njihove peruti ravne druga proti drugi. Vsako je imelo dve, ki sta pokrili na tej strani in vsako je imelo dve, ki sta pokrili na oni strani njihovih teles.
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 a host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
In ko so hodila, sem slišal šum njihovih peruti, podoben hrumenju velikih vodá, kakor glas Vsemogočnega, glas govora kakor hrup vojske. Ko so stala, so svoje peruti povesila.
25 And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.
Bil je glas izpod nebesnega svoda, ki je bil nad njihovimi glavami, ko so stala in spustila svoje peruti.
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.
Nad nebesnim svodom, ki je bil nad njihovimi glavami, je bila podobnost prestola, kakor videz kamna safira. Na podobnosti prestola je bila podobnost kakor videz človeka nad njim.
27 And I saw as the color of amber, as the appearance of fire around 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 on all sides.
Videl sem kakor barvo jantarja, kakor videz ognja okrog in okrog znotraj njega, od videza njegovih ledij navzgor in celo od videza njegovih ledij navzdol sem videl, kakor bi bil videz ognja in ta je imel sijaj vsenaokrog.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so [was] the appearance of the brightness around. 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 speaking.
Kakor videz mavrice, ki je na oblaku na deževen dan, takšen je bil videz sijaja naokoli. To je bil videz podobnosti Gospodove slave. Ko sem to zagledal, sem padel na svoj obraz in slišal glas nekoga, ki je spregovoril.
