Ezekiel 10
1 And Y siy, and lo! in the firmament that was on the heed of cherubyns, as a saphir stoon, and as the fourme of licnesse of a kyngis seete apperide theron.
Et vidi, et ecce in firmamento, quod erat super caput cherubim, quasi lapis sapphirus, quasi species similitudinis solii, apparuit super ea.
2 And he seide to the man that was clothid in lynnun clothis, and spak, Entre thou in the myddis of wheelis, that ben vndur cherubyns, and fille thin hond with coolis of fier, that ben bitwixe cherubyns, and schede thou out on the citee.
Et dixit ad virum, qui indutus erat lineis, et ait: Ingredere in medio rotarum, quae sunt subtus cherubim, et imple manum tuam prunis ignis, quae sunt inter cherubim, et effunde super civitatem. Ingressusque est in conspectu meo:
3 And he entride in my siyt; forsothe cherubyns stoden at the riyt side of the hous, whanne the man entride, and a clowde fillide the ynnere halle.
cherubim autem stabant a dextris domus cum ingrederetur vir, et nubes implevit atrium interius.
4 And the glorie of the Lord was reisid fro aboue cherubyns to the threisfold of the hous; and the hous was fillid with a cloude, and the halle was fillid with schynyng of the glorie of the Lord.
Et elevata est gloria Domini desuper cherub ad limen domus: et repleta est domus nube, et atrium repletum est splendore gloriae Domini.
5 And the sown of wyngis of cherubyns was herd til to the outermere halle, as the vois of almyyti God spekynge.
Et sonitus alarum cherubim audiebatur usque ad atrium exterius, quasi vox Dei omnipotentis loquentis.
6 And whanne he hadde comaundid to the man that was clothid in lynnun clothis, and hadde seid, Take thou fier fro the myddis of the wheelis, that ben bitwixe cherubyns, he entride, and stood bisidis the wheel.
Cumque praecepisset viro, qui indutus erat lineis, dicens: Sume ignem de medio rotarum, quae sunt inter cherubim: ingressus ille stetit iuxta rotam.
7 And cherub stretchide forth his hond fro the myddis of cherubyns, to the fier that was bitwixe cherubyns; and took, and yaf in to the hondis of hym that was clothid in lynnun clothis; and he took, and yede out.
Et extendit cherub manum de medio cherubim ad ignem, qui erat inter cherubim: et sumpsit, et dedit in manus eius, qui indutus erat lineis: qui accipiens egressus est.
8 And the licnesse of the hond of a man apperide in cherubyns, vndur the wyngis of tho.
Et apparuit in cherubim similitudo manus hominis subtus pennas eorum.
9 And Y siy, and lo! foure wheelis weren bisidis cherubyns; o wheel bisidis o cherub, and another wheel bisidis another cherub; forsothe the licnesse of wheelis was as the siyt of the stoon crisolitis.
et vidi, et ecce quattuor rotae iuxta cherubim: rota una iuxta cherub unum, et rota alia iuxta cherub unum: species autem rotarum erat quasi visio lapidis chrysolithi.
10 And the biholdyng of tho was o licnesse of foure, as if a wheel be in the myddis of a wheel.
et aspectus earum similitudo una quattuor: quasi sit rota in medio rotae.
11 And whanne tho yeden, tho yeden in to foure partis; tho turneden not ayen goynge, but to the place to which that that was the firste wheel bowide to go, also othere suyden, and turneden not ayen.
Cumque ambularent, in quattuor partes gradiebantur: et non revertebantur ambulantes, sed ad locum, ad quem ire declinabat quae prima erat, sequebantur et ceterae, nec convertebantur.
12 And al the bodi of tho wheelis, and the neckis, and hondis, and wyngis of the beestis, and the cerclis, weren ful of iyen, in the cumpas of foure wheelis.
Et omne corpus earum, et colla, et manus, et pennae, et circuli plena erant oculis, in circuitu quattuor rotarum.
13 And he clepide tho wheelis volible, ether able to go al aboute, in myn heryng.
Et rotas istas vocavit volubiles, audiente me.
14 Forsothe o beeste hadde foure faces; o face was the face of cherub, and the secounde face the face of a man, and in the thridde was the face of a lioun, and in the fourthe was the face of an egle;
Quattuor autem facies habebat unum: facies una, facies cherub: et facies secunda, facies hominis: et in tertio facies leonis: et in quarto facies aquilae.
15 and the cherubyns weren reisid. Thilke is the beeste, which Y hadde seyn bisidis the flood Chobar.
Et elevata sunt cherubim: ipsum est animal, quod videram iuxta fluvium Chobar.
16 And whanne cherubyns yeden, also the wheelis bisidis tho yeden to gidere; whanne cherubyns reisiden her wyngis, that tho schulden be enhaunsid fro the erthe, the wheelis abididen not stille, but also tho weren bisidis cherubyns.
Cumque ambularent cherubim, ibant pariter et rotae iuxta ea: et cum elevarent cherubim alas suas ut exaltarentur de terra, non residebant rotae, sed et ipsae iuxta erant.
17 The wheelis stooden with tho cherubyns stondynge, and weren reisid with the cherubyns reisid; for the spirit of lijf was in tho wheelis.
Stantibus illis, stabant: et cum elevatis elevabantur. spiritus enim vitae erat in eis.
18 And the glorie of the Lord yede out fro the threisfold of the temple, and stood on the cherubyns.
Et egressa est gloria Domini a limine templi: et stetit super cherubim.
19 And cherubyns reisiden her wyngis, and weren enhaunsid fro the erthe bifore me; and whanne tho yeden out, also the wheelis sueden; and it stood in the entryng of the eest yate of the hous of the Lord, and the glorie of God of Israel was on tho.
Et elevantia cherubim alas suas, exaltata sunt a terra coram me: et illis egredientibus, rotae quoque subsecutae sunt: et stetit in introitu portae domus Domini orientalis: et gloria Dei Israel erat super ea.
20 Thilke is the beeste, which Y siy vndur God of Israel, bisidis the flood Chobar. And Y vndurstood that foure cherubyns weren;
Ipsum est animal quod vidi subter Deum Israel iuxta fluvium Chobar: et intellexi quia cherubim essent.
21 foure faces weren to oon, and foure wyngys weren to oon; and the licnesse of the hond of a man was vndur the wyngis of tho.
Quattuor vultus uni, et quattuor alae uni: et similitudo manus hominis sub alis eorum.
22 And the licnesse of the cheris of tho weren thilke cheeris whiche Y hadde seyn bisidis the flood Chobar; and the biholdyng of tho, and the fersnesse of ech, was to entre bifor his face.
Et similitudo vultuum eorum, ipsi vultus quos videram iuxta fluvium Chobar, et intuitus eorum, et impetus singulorum ante faciem suam ingredi.
