Ezekyèl 10
1 Answit, mwen te gade e vwala, nan gran espas ouvri ki te sou tèt a cheriben yo, yon bagay tankou yon wòch safì ki pa aparans, te sanble yon twòn ki te parèt anlè yo.
And I looked and saw above the expanse, above the heads of the cherubim, the likeness of a throne of sapphire.
2 Li te pale ak nonm abiye an len an e te di: “Antre nan mitan wou k ap vire vit fè wonn anba cheriben an, plen men nou ak chabon tou limen ki antre cheriben yo e gaye yo toupatou nan vil la.” Konsa, li te antre pou m te ka wè l.
And the LORD said to the man clothed in linen, “Go inside the wheelwork beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” And as I watched, he went in.
3 Alò, cheriben yo te kanpe bò dwat a tanp lan lè nonm nan te antre ladann nan e nwaj la te plen lakou enteryè a.
Now when the man went in, the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple, and a cloud filled the inner court.
4 Epi glwa a SENYÈ a te leve monte soti nan cheriben yo, jis rive nan papòt tanp lan. Tanp lan te plen ak nwaj la e lakou a te plen ak ekla a glwa SENYÈ a.
Then the glory of the LORD rose from above the cherubim and stood over the threshold of the temple. The temple was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the LORD.
5 Anplis, bri a zèl cheriben yo te vin tande jis rive nan lakou eksteyè a, tankou vwa SENYÈ Pwisan an lè L pale.
The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when He speaks.
6 Li te vin rive lè Li te kòmande nonm abiye an len an e te di: “Pran dife soti nan mitan wou k ap vire vit fè wonn yo, soti antre cheriben yo”. Epi li te antre e te kanpe akote yon wou.
When the LORD commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, “Take fire from within the wheelwork, from among the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel.
7 Konsa, cheriben an te lonje men l soti antre cheriben kote dife ki te antre cheriben yo, pran ladann pou mete nan men a sila ki te abiye an len an, ki te pran l e te sòti deyò.
Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand and took some of the fire that was among them. And he put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who received it and went out.
8 Fòm men a yon moun te parèt isit nan cheriben nan anba zèl yo.
(The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.)
9 Alò, mwen te gade e vwala, kat wou akote cheriben yo, yon wou akote chak cheriben. Aparans a wou yo te tankou ekla a pyè krizolit.
Then I looked and saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub. And the wheels gleamed like a beryl stone.
10 Selon aparans yo, toule kat te sanble menm jan, konsi se te yon wou ki te anndan yon lòt wou.
As for their appearance, all four had the same form, like a wheel within a wheel.
11 Lè yo te deplase yo, yo te ale nan kat direksyon pa yo, san vire pandan yo t ap prale a. Yo te toujou swiv direksyon kote yo te fikse a, san vire pandan yo t ap prale a.
When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions, without turning as they moved. For wherever the head faced, the cherubim would go in that direction, without turning as they moved.
12 Tout kò yo, do yo, men yo, zèl yo e wou yo te plen zye toutotou, wou ki t ap sèvi pou toule kat yo.
Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were full of eyes all around, as were their four wheels.
13 Wou yo te rele nan zòrèy mwen, kon wou toubiyon.
I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”
14 Yo chak te gen kat figi. Premye figi a te figi a yon cheriben, dezyèm figi a te figi a yon nonm, twazyèm figi a te figi yon lyon e katriyèm figi a te figi a yon èg.
Each of the cherubim had four faces: the first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
15 Konsa, cheriben yo te leve monte. Yo se kreyati vivan ke m te wè akote rivyè Kebar a.
Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the River Kebar.
16 Lè cheriben yo te deplase, wou yo ta ale bò kote yo; anplis, lè cheriben yo te leve zèl yo pou leve atè a, wou yo pa t vire pou kite bò kote yo.
When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and even when they spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not veer away from their side.
17 Lè cheriben yo te kanpe an plas, wou yo ta kanpe an plas. Lè yo te leve, wou yo ta leve avèk yo, paske lespri a kreyati vivan an te nan yo.
When the cherubim stood still, the wheels also stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
18 Epi glwa SENYÈ a te kite papòt tanp lan, e te kanpe anwo cheriben yo.
Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temple and stood above the cherubim.
19 Lè cheriben yo te pati, yo te leve zèl yo pou te monte leve kite tè a devan zye m avèk wou yo bò kote yo. Konsa, yo te kanpe dyanm nan antre a pòtay lès lakay SENYÈ a; e glwa a Bondye Israël la te tann sou yo.
As I watched, the cherubim lifted their wings and rose up from the ground, with the wheels beside them as they went. And they stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the LORD, with the glory of the God of Israel above them.
20 Sa yo se kreyati vivan ke m te wè anba Bondye Israël la akote rivyè Kebar a; konsa, mwen te konnen ke se cheriben yo te ye.
These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar, and I knew that they were cherubim.
21 Chak te gen kat figi, chak te gen kat zèl, e anba zèl yo, se te fòm men moun.
Each had four faces and four wings, with what looked like human hands under their wings.
22 Selon sa figi yo te sanble, yo te gen menm figi yo aparans ke mwen te wè akote rivyè Kebar a. Yo chak te ale tou dwat devan.
Their faces looked like the faces I had seen by the River Kebar. Each creature went straight ahead.
