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.
Then I looked, and see, in the expanse that was over the head of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as 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.
He spoke to the man clothed in linen, and said, “Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub, and fill both your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city.” He 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.
Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
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 LORD’s glory mounted up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD’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 wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as 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 to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, “Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim,” that he 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.
The cherub stretched out his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took some of it, and put it into the hands of him who was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
8 (Rungu rwa mathagu ma akerubi acio nĩkuonekaga kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta moko ma mũndũ.)
The form of a man’s hand appeared here in the cherubim 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.
I looked, and behold, there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub. The appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone.
10 Makĩoneka-rĩ, mothe mana nĩmahaanaine; o kũgũrũ kuonekaga ta gũtoonyanĩte na kũgũrũ kũngĩ.
As for their appearance, the four of them had one likeness, like a wheel within a 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 went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn as they went, but to the place where the head looked they followed it. They didn’t turn 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, their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, even the wheels that the four of them had.
13 Na rĩrĩ, nĩndaiguire magũrũ macio magĩĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Magũrũ marĩa mathiũrũrũkaga.”
As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, “the whirling wheels”.
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.
Every one of them had four faces. The first face was the face of the cherub. The second face was the face of a man. The third face was the face of a lion. The fourth was the face of an eagle.
15 Ningĩ akerubi acio makĩambata na igũrũ. Ici ciarĩ ciũmbe irĩ muoyo iria ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari.
The cherubim mounted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
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.
When the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels also didn’t turn from 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 they stood, these stood. When they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Ningĩ riiri wa Jehova ũkĩehera hau igũrũ rĩa hingĩro ya hekarũ na ũkĩrũgama igũrũ rĩa akerubi acio.
The LORD’s glory 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 mounted up from the earth in my sight when they went out, with the wheels beside them. Then they stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them 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.
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and 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.
Every one had four faces, and every one four wings. The likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 Mothiũ mao maahaanaga ta marĩa ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari. O ũmwe wao aathiiaga arũngĩrĩirie na mbere.
As for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves. They each went straight forward.
