Ezekieli 10
1 Na rĩrĩ, nĩndarorire ngĩona hau rĩera-inĩ igũrũ rĩa mĩtwe ya akerubi kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene ta ihiga rĩa yakuti.
As I looked toward the dome that was over the heads of the cherubim; something appeared above them like a sapphire with the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 Nake Jehova akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wehumbĩte nguo cia gatani atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũtoonye gatagatĩ-inĩ ka magũrũ macio marathiũrũrũka rungu rwa harĩa akerubi marĩ. Iyũria hĩ ciaku cierĩ makara ma mwaki kuuma gatagatĩ ka akerubi ũcooke ũmahurunje kũu itũũra-inĩ inene.” Nake agĩthiĩ agĩtoonya thĩinĩ, o ngĩĩonagĩra na maitho makwa.
Then Yahweh spoke to the man dressed in linen and said, “Go between the wheels underneath the cherubim, and fill both your hands with fiery coals from between the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” Then the man went in as I watched.
3 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũcio aatoonya thĩinĩ, akerubi acio magĩkorwo marũgamĩte mwena wa gũthini wa hekarũ, narĩo itu rĩkaiyũra nja ĩrĩa ya na thĩinĩ.
The cherubim stood on the right side of the house when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner courtyard.
4 Naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩambata uumĩte igũrũ rĩa akerubi, na ũgĩthiĩ hingĩro-inĩ ya hekarũ. Itu rĩu rĩkĩiyũra hekarũ, nayo nja ĩkĩiyũra ũkengi wa riiri wa Jehova.
The glory of Yahweh rose up from the cherubim and stood over the threshold of the house. It filled the house with the cloud, and the courtyard was full of the brightness of Yahweh's glory.
5 Naguo mũrurumo wa mathagu ma akerubi acio nĩwaiguĩkaga o nginya kũu nja ya nyumĩrĩra, o taarĩ mũgambo wa Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe rĩrĩa ekwaria.
The sound of the cherubim's wings was heard as far as the outer courtyard, like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.
6 Na rĩrĩa Jehova aathire mũndũ ũcio warĩ na nguo cia gatani, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya mwaki kuuma gatagatĩ ka magũrũ macio, kuuma gatagatĩ-inĩ ka akerubi,” mũndũ ũcio agĩtoonya thĩinĩ na akĩrũgama mwena-inĩ wa kũgũrũ kũmwe kwamo.
It came about, when God commanded the man dressed in linen and said, “Take fire from between the wheels that are between the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel.
7 Ningĩ ũmwe wa akerubi acio agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake mwaki-inĩ ũcio warĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao. Akĩoya mwaki ũmwe waguo, akĩwĩkĩra hĩ-inĩ cia mũndũ ũcio warĩ na nguo cia gatani, nake mũndũ ũcio akĩwoya akiuma nja.
A cherub reached out his hand between the cherubim to the fire that was among the cherubim, and lifted it up and placed it into the hands of the one dressed in linen. The man took it and went back out.
8 (Rungu rwa mathagu ma akerubi acio nĩkuonekaga kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta moko ma mũndũ.)
I saw on the cherubim something like a man's hand under their wings.
9 Nĩndarorire, ngĩona magũrũ mana ma ngaari hau mĩena-inĩ ya akerubi acio, o kũmwe gũkagĩa mwena-inĩ wa o ũmwe wa akerubi acio; magũrũ macio maahenagia ta rangi wa thumarati.
So I looked, and behold! Four wheels were beside the cherubim—one wheel beside each cherub—and the appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone.
10 Makĩoneka-rĩ, mothe mana nĩmahaanaine; o kũgũrũ kuonekaga ta gũtoonyanĩte na kũgũrũ kũngĩ.
Their appearance was the same likeness for all four of them, like a wheel intersecting another wheel.
11 Magĩthiĩ, maathiiaga na mwena o wothe wa ĩyo ĩna, o kũrĩa akerubi acio merekeirie ũthiũ; magũrũ macio ma ngaari matiagarũrũkaga rĩrĩa akerubi acio megũthiĩ. Akerubi acio maathiiaga na kũrĩa guothe mũtwe werekera, matekũgarũrũka rĩrĩa marathiĩ.
When they moved, they went in any of their four directions, without turning as they went; but whatever direction the head faced, they followed after it without turning as they went.
12 Mĩĩrĩ yao yothe, o hamwe na mĩgongo yao, na moko mao na mathagu mao, maiyũrĩte maitho kũndũ guothe, na magũrũ macio mana ma ngaari o namo.
Their whole body—including their backs, their hands, and their wings—was covered with eyes, and eyes covered the four wheels all around also.
13 Na rĩrĩ, nĩndaiguire magũrũ macio magĩĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Magũrũ marĩa mathiũrũrũkaga.”
As I listened, the wheels were called, “Whirling.”
14 O ũmwe wa akerubi aarĩ na mothiũ mana: Ũthiũ ũmwe warĩ wa kerubi, na wa keerĩ warĩ wa mũndũ, na wa gatatũ warĩ wa mũrũũthi, na wa kana warĩ wa nderi.
They had four faces each; the first face was the face of a cherub, the second face was the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Ningĩ akerubi acio makĩambata na igũrũ. Ici ciarĩ ciũmbe irĩ muoyo iria ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari.
Then the cherubim—these were the living creatures that I had seen by the Kebar Canal—rose up.
16 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akerubi acio maathiiaga, magũrũ macio maarĩ mĩena-inĩ yao namo magathiĩ; na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akerubi acio maambararia mathagu mao mombũke, magũrũ macio matioimaga mĩena-inĩ yao.
Whenever the cherubim moved, the wheels would go beside them, and whenever the cherubim lifted up their wings to rise up from the earth, the wheels did not turn. They still stayed beside them.
17 Rĩrĩa akerubi acio marũgama, o namo makarũgama o ũguo; na rĩrĩa akerubi mombũka, namo makombũkania nao, tondũ roho wa ciũmbe icio irĩ muoyo warĩ thĩinĩ wamo.
When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when they rose up, the wheels rose up with them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
18 Ningĩ riiri wa Jehova ũkĩehera hau igũrũ rĩa hingĩro ya hekarũ na ũkĩrũgama igũrũ rĩa akerubi acio.
Then the glory of Yahweh went out from over the threshold of the house and stood over the cherubim.
19 O ndĩĩroreire ũguo, akerubi acio makĩambararia mathagu mao makĩũmbũka, na rĩrĩa maathiiaga, magũrũ macio maatwaranaga nao. Nao makĩrũgama itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa irathĩro wa nyũmba ya Jehova; naguo riiri wa Ngai wa Isiraeli warĩ igũrũ rĩao.
The cherubim lifted up their wings and rose from the earth in my sight when they went out, and the wheels did the same beside them. They stood at the eastern entrance to Yahweh's house, and the glory of the God of Israel came upon them from above.
20 Icio nĩ ciũmbe irĩ muoyo iria ndoonete irĩ rungu rwa Ngai wa Isiraeli hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari, na niĩ ngĩmenya atĩ maarĩ akerubi.
These were the living creatures that I had seen below the God of Israel by the Kebar Canal, so I knew that they were cherubim!
21 O ũmwe aarĩ na mothiũ mana, na mathagu mana, na rungu rwa mathagu mao nĩ haarĩ na kĩndũ gĩatariĩ ta moko ma mũndũ.
They had four faces each and four wings each, and the likeness of human hands under their wings,
22 Mothiũ mao maahaanaga ta marĩa ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari. O ũmwe wao aathiiaga arũngĩrĩirie na mbere.
and the likeness of their faces was like the faces that I had seen in the vision at the Kebar Canal, and each of them went straight ahead.
