And faces their and wings their [were] spread out from to above each two [wings] [were] touching each and two [wings] [were] covering bodies their.
12 Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe yia ŋgɔ tẽe. Woyia afi sia afi si gbɔgbɔ la yina la, eye wometrɔna yia teƒe bubu aɖeke o.
And each to [the] side of face its they moved to where it was there the spirit [about] to go they moved not they turned when moved they.

[the] appearance of The wheels and construction their [was] like [the] appearance of chrysolite and a likeness one [belonged] to [the] four of them and appearance their and construction their [was] just as it was the wheel in [the] middle of the wheel.
17 Ne woɖe zɔ la, woyia teƒe eneawo dometɔ ɖeka si nu gbagbeawo trɔ mo ɖo. Ne nu gbagbeawo le yiyim la, tasiaɖam la ƒe afɔawo metrɔna le wo ŋu o.
On [the] four sides their when moved they they moved not they turned when moved they.
18 Tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo dzi ŋɔ, eye ŋkuwo le afɔ eneawo katã ŋu kpe ɖo.
And rims their and height [belonged] to them and fear [belonged] to them and rims their [were] full of eyes all around to [the] four of them.
19 Ne nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, tasiaɖam ƒe afɔ siwo le wo xa la hã ɖea zɔ, eye ne nu gbagbeawo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba la, afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi.
And when moved the living creatures they moved the wheels beside them and when were lifted up the living creatures from on the ground they were lifted up the wheels.
20 Afi sia afi si gbɔgbɔ la ayi la, woawo hã yina, afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi yina, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ le afɔawo hã me.
To where it was there the spirit [about] to go they moved there towards the spirit to go and the wheels they were lifted up close by them for [the] spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
21 Ne nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, woawo hã ɖea zɔ; ne nu gbagbeawo tɔ la, woawo hã tɔna, eye ne nu gbagbeawo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba la, tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba abe nu gbagbeawo ene, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ nɔ tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo me.
When moved they they moved and when stood still they they stood still and when were lifted up they from on the ground they were lifted up the wheels close by them for [the] spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
22 Nane si ɖi tsikpe, keke, le keklẽm, eye wòdzi ŋɔ la, keke ɖe nu gbagbeawo tame.
And a likeness [was] above [the] heads of the living creature an expanse like [the] appearance of frost awesome spread out above heads their from to above.
23 Nu gbagbeawo keke aʋala ɖekaɖeka do ɖe wo nɔewo gbɔ, eye ɖe sia ɖe tsyɔ aʋala eve na eɖokui.
And under the expanse wings their [were] straight each to sister its [belonged] to each two [wings] covering them [belonged] to each two [wings] covering them bodies their.
24 Esi nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, mese gbeɖiɖi aɖe tso woƒe aʋalawo me abe tɔsisiwo ƒe ɖiɖi ene, abe Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe gbe ene, abe aʋakɔ aɖe ƒe ʋunyaʋunyawɔwɔ ene. Ne nu gbagbeawo tɔ ɖe teƒe ɖeka la, woɖiɖia woƒe aʋalawo.
And I heard [the] sound of wings their like [the] sound of waters many like [the] sound of [the] Almighty when moved they [the] sound of a rainstorm like [the] sound of an army when stood still they they let drop wings their.
25 Gbe aɖe ɖi tso nu si xe tame na wo la tame esi wotɔ heɖiɖi woƒe aʋalawo.
And it came a sound above the expanse which [was] above head their when stood still they they let drop wings their.
26 Nane si ɖi fiazikpui si wowɔ kple kpe xɔasi ene la le nu si xe woƒe tame la tame, eye nane si ɖi ame la nɔ fiazikpui la dzi le yame ʋĩi.
And [was] from above the expanse which [was] above head their like [the] appearance of a stone of sapphire [the] likeness of a throne and [was] on [the] likeness of the throne a likeness like [the] appearance of a human on it from to above.
27 Mekpɔ be nu si dze abe eƒe ali gbɔ ene, yi eƒe dzime la, le abe ga si le keklẽm ene. Tso afi ma yi anyigba la, le abe dzo ene, eye keklẽ gã aɖe ƒo xlãe.
And I saw - like [the] appearance of a shining substance like [the] appearance of fire within to it [was] all around from [the] appearance of hips his and upwards and from [the] appearance of hips his and downwards I saw like [the] appearance of fire and brightness of him [was] all around.
28 Ale si anyieʋɔ dzena le lilikpowo me ne tsi dza la, nenema keklẽ la nɔ ƒo xlãe. Esia dze abe Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ene. Esi mekpɔe la, medze anyi, tsyɔ mo anyi, eye mese ame aɖe ƒe gbe.
