< Izikiel 10 >
1 Mgbe ahụ, elere m anya hụ ocheeze ọma e ji nkume safaia wuo ka ọ pụtara ihe na mbara eluigwe, nʼelu ebe ahụ isi cherubim ndị ahụ dị.
And I look, and behold, on the expanse that [is] above the head of the cherubim, as a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne, He has been seen over them.
2 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha, “Baa nʼetiti ụkwụ ụgbọala ahụ dị nʼokpuru cherubim ndị ahụ. Site nʼetiti cherubim ndị ahụ kpojuo icheku ọkụ nke na-ere ere nʼaka gị, fesachaa ha nʼime obodo ahụ niile.” Ọ bara nʼime ka m nʼele ya anya.
And He speaks to the man clothed with linen and says, “Go into the midst of the wheel, to the place of the cherub, and fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter over the city.” And he goes in before my eyes.
3 Cherubim ndị ahụ na-eguzo nʼakụkụ ndịda nke ụlọnsọ ahụ mgbe nwoke ahụ banyere. Igwe ojii jupụtakwara nʼogige ime ụlọnsọ ahụ.
And the cherubim are standing on the right side of the house, at the going in of the man, and the cloud has filled the inner court,
4 Mgbe ahụ, ebube Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼelu cherubim bilie, bịa guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ahụ. Ụlọnsọ ahụ jupụtakwara nʼigwe ojii, ihe nke ebube Onyenwe anyị jupụtakwara nʼogige ụlọnsọ ahụ.
and the glory of YHWH becomes high above the cherub, over the threshold of the house, and the house is filled with the cloud, and the court has been filled with the brightness of the glory of YHWH.
5 Ụzụ nke nku cherubim ndị ahụ na-eme dịkwa ka olu Chineke Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile. A na-anụkwa ụzụ nku ndị ahụ nʼogige ụlọnsọ ahụ dị nʼezi.
And a noise of the wings of the cherubim has been heard in the outer court, as the voice of God—the Mighty One—in His speaking.
6 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị nyere nwoke ahụ yi uwe ezi akwa ọcha iwu, sị, “Gaa nʼetiti cherubim ahụ gụta ụfọdụ icheku ọkụ dị nʼetiti wịịlu ụgbọala ahụ,” nwoke ahụ banyere guzo nʼakụkụ otu wịịlu ahụ.
And it comes to pass, in His commanding the man clothed with linen, saying, “Take fire from between the wheel, from between the cherubim,” and he goes in and stands near the wheel,
7 Mgbe ahụ, otu nʼime ndị cherubim ahụ setịpụrụ aka ya nʼebe ọkụ ahụ dị nʼetiti ha. Ọ gụtara ụfọdụ icheku ọkụ tinye nʼaka nwoke ahụ yi uwe akwa ọcha onye weere ya pụọ.
that the [one] cherub puts forth his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that [is] between the cherubim, and lifts up, and gives [it] into the hands of him who is clothed with linen, and he receives, and comes forth.
8 Nʼokpuru nku ndị cherubim ahụ ka a na-ahụta ihe yiri aka mmadụ.
And there appears in the cherubim the form of a hand of man under their wings,
9 Elere m anya hụ wịịlu anọ, nke dị nʼakụkụ cherubim ndị ahụ. Cherubim ọbụla nwere otu wịịlu nʼakụkụ ya. Wịịlu ndị a niile na-egbu maramara dịka nkume beril.
and I look, and behold, four wheels near the cherubim, one wheel near one cherub, and another wheel near the other cherub, and the appearance of the wheels [is] as the color of a beryl stone.
10 Wịịlu anọ ndị ahụ yiri onwe ha. Nke ọbụla nʼime ha dịka wịịlu a rụnyere nʼetiti wịịlu ọzọ.
And [as for] their appearances, [the] four had one likeness, as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
11 Mgbe ha na-aga, ha niile na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ọbụla nke cherubim ndị ahụ chere ihu. Wịịlu ndị a adịghị echigharị echigharị mgbe cherubim ndị a na-agagharị. Kama ebe isi cherubim ndị ahụ chere ihu ka wịịlu ndị ahụ na-aga. Ha adịghị elekwa anya nʼazụ dịka ha na-aga.
In their going, they go on their four sides; they do not turn around in their going, for to the place to where the head turns, they go after it, they do not turn around in their going.
12 Gburugburu ha, nʼanụ ahụ ha niile, ma nʼazụ ha, ma nʼaka ha, ma na nku ha, ma na wịịlu ndị ahụ, ihe jupụtara ha bụ anya. Anya dị nʼakụkụ ha niile.
And all their flesh, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, are full of eyes all around—[the] wheels [the] four had.
13 Aha m nụrụ a na-akpọ wịịlu ndị ahụ bụ, Ọgba gburugburu.
As for the wheels—they were called “Whirling Wheel” in my ears.
14 Nke ọbụla nʼime cherubim ndị a nwere ihu anọ. Ihu nke mbụ dịka ihu cherub. Nke abụọ dịka ihu mmadụ; nke atọ dịka ihu ọdụm, ma nke anọ dịka ihu ugo.
And four faces [are] to each; the face of the first [is] the face of the cherub, and the face of the second [is] the face of man, and of the third the face of a lion, and of the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Mgbe ahụ, Cherubim ndị ahụ buliri onwe ha elu. Ndị a bụ ihe ndị ahụ dị ndụ nke m hụrụ na mbụ nʼakụkụ osimiri Keba.
And the cherubim are lifted up, it [is] the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
16 Mgbe cherubim ndị ahụ na-aga, wịịlu ndị ahụ dị nʼakụkụ ha na-eso ha na-aga. Mgbe ha na-achili nku ha i si nʼala bulie onwe ha elu, wịịlu ha na-anọgidekwa nʼakụkụ ha.
And in the going of the cherubim, the wheels go beside them; and in the cherubim lifting up their wings to be high above the earth, the wheels do not turn around, even they, from being beside them.
17 Mgbe cherubim ndị ahụ guzoro nʼotu ebe, wịịlu ahụ na-eguzokwa. Mgbe ha na-ebuli onwe ha elu, wịịlu ndị ahụ na-ebulikwa onwe ha elu, nʼihi na mmụọ nke ihe ahụ dị ndụ dị nʼime ha.
In their standing they stand, and in their exaltation they are exalted with them: for [the] spirit of the living creature [is] in them.
18 Emesịa, ebube nke Onyenwe anyị sitere na mbata ọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ahụ pụọ, gaa guzo nʼelu cherubim ndị ahụ.
And the glory of YHWH goes forth from off the threshold of the house, and stands over the cherubim,
19 Mgbe m nọ na-ele anya, cherubim ahụ gbasapụrụ nku ha felie, wịịlu ha niile dịkwa nʼakụkụ ha. Ha guzoro na mbata ọnụ ụzọ nke dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ nke ụlọ Onyenwe anyị, na ebube nke Chineke nke Izrel dịkwa nʼelu ha.
and the cherubim lift up their wings, and are lifted up from the earth before my eyes; in their going forth, the wheels [are] also alongside them, and he stands at the opening of the east gate of the house of YHWH, and the glory of the God of Israel [is] over them from above.
20 Ndị a bụ ihe ndị ahụ dị ndụ, nke m hụrụ nʼokpuru Chineke Izrel nʼakụkụ osimiri Keba, amatara m na ha bụ cherubim.
It [is] the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar, and I know that they are cherubim.
21 Nke ọbụla nʼime ha nwere ihu anọ na nku anọ, na ihe yiri aka mmadụ nʼokpuru nku ha.
[The] four—each had four faces, and each had four wings, and the likeness of the hands of man [is] under their wings.
22 Ihu ha yikwara ihu ihe ndị ahụ m hụrụ nʼakụkụ osimiri Keba. Nke ọbụla na-agakwa ije nʼihu ihu na-eleghị anya nʼazụ.
And the likeness of their faces, they [are] the faces that I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they each go straight forward.
