1 Hagi 30ma hia kafumofona namba 4 ikamofona 5fugnare kina vahezagane Kebar tinkenare Babiloni mani'nogeno, monamo'a anagige'na ava'nagna zampi Anumzamofona ke'noe.
On the fifth day of the fourth month of the thirtieth year, I was with the other exiles by the River Kebar. The heavens opened and I saw visions of God.
2 Hagi ana 5fu kna zupa kini ne' Jehoiakinima kinama huno mani'nea kafumo'a 5fu'a kafu hu'ne.
(On the fifth day of the month of the fifth year of King Jehoiachin's exile,
3 Hagi nagra Busi nemofo pristi ne' Izikeli'na Babiloni vahe mopafi Kebar tinte mani'nogeno Ra Anumzamo'a keaga nenasamino, azana nagrite ante'ne.
a message from Lord was given to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of Babylonia by the River Kebar. There Lord's power came over him.)
4 Hagi negogeno noti kazigati tusi'a ununko atuno ne-egeno, hampomo'ene kopsinamo'enena tusiza nehigeno, ana hampona tusi hankavenentake masamo rugagintegeno, amu'nompina teve neregeno, ainima tevefima kre fizoma higeno koranentake'ma hiaza nehigeno tevemo'a ruragareno vuno eno hu'ne.
I looked up and saw a windstorm racing in from the north, a tremendous cloud with fire flashing like lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The middle of the fire looked like glowing metal
5 Hagi ana tevemofo amu'nompina 4'a kasefa'ma hu'za mani'naza zagarami mani'naze. Hagi ana 4'a zagama zamagoana, vahe kna hazageno,
and within it was the shape of four beings. This was what they looked like: They had a human shape,
6 mago magomofona 4'a avugosagi, 4'a agekonagi huno metere hu'ne.
but they each had four faces and four wings.
7 Hagi zamagiamo'a fatgo higeno, zamaga agusamo'a bulimakao afu anentamofo agiamo'ma hiaza higeno, ana zamaga agusamo'a bronsi eri masave huntazageno masanentake huno tampretampre hiankna hu'ne.
They had straight legs, and the soles of their feet looked like the hooves of calves, and shone like polished bronze.
8 Hagi ana 4'a zagaramimofona 4'a kaziga zamageko'namofo henka kaziga, vahe aza huntetere hu'ne. Ana higeno magoke magokemofona 4'a avugosane, agekonane metere higeno,
They had human hands under their wings on each of their four sides. The four of them all had faces and wings,
9 zamagekonama rufanara'ma hazageno'a mago'mofo ageko'namo'a mago'mofo agekona ome avako hutere hu'ne. Hagi kama vazana mago mago'mo'a rukrahera osu vu fatgo hu'naze.
and each of their wings touched the wings of the one next to it. As they moved they didn't turn—they all moved straight in one direction.
10 Hagi ana 4'a zagaramimofo zamavugosamo'a amanahu hu'ne, avuga kaziga vahe avugosa huntegeno, tamaga kaziga laioni avugosa huntegeno, hoga kaziga ve bulimakao afu'mofo avugosa huntegeno, zamefira tumpamofo avugosa hunte'ne.
This what their faces looked like. They had a human face to the front, a lion's face to the right, a bull's face to the left, and lastly an eagle's face.
11 Zamavugosamo'a e'ina hu'ne. Hagi mago mago zagamofona 4'a ageko'na huntetere hu'neankino, tare zamageko'namo'a rufanara higeno, magomofo agekonamo'a magomofo agekonare ome avako hutere hu'ne. Hagi tare zamageko'nanura zamavufaga eri fraki'naze.
These were their faces. Their wings were spread out above them. They all had two wings that touched the wings of the one beside it, as well as two wings that covered its body.
12 Hagi mago magomo'a avugosama huntenerega vu fatgo nehigeno, Avamumo'ma vuoma hirega rukrahera osu ana zagaramimo'za nevaze.
Each of them went together in whatever direction the Spirit wished them to go, moving without turning.
13 Hagi ana zagaramimofo amu'nozmifina tevema nereazamo'a, tankanu'zagna huge, tosi tavikna zamo vuge ege hu'ne. Hagi ana tevemo'a tusiza huno hagna hagna huno remsa nehigeno, ana tevefintira kopsinamo'a rutrage huno vuno eno hu'ne.
These beings looked like bright burning coals or torches. Blazing fire moved to and fro between the beings, and lightning flashed out from the fire.
14 Hagi ana tevefina kasefa'ma hu'zama mani'naza zagamo'za kopsinamo'ma hiaza hu'za trage hu'za vuge'ege hu'naze.
The beings raced to and fro as fast as the lightning flashes.
15 Hagi ana zagaramima zamagoana, mago mago zagamofo asoparega mopafina mago mago wili metere higeno, ana makara 4'a me'nege'na ke'noe.
As I was watching these beings, I noticed a wheel on the ground next to each of the beings with their four faces.
16 Hagi ana wilimo'za amanahu hu'naze, zamavufaga'amo'a berilie nehaza havereti'ma nehiaza huno ana wilimo'za mago zanke hu'za marave marave nehazageno, mago mago wilimofo agu'afina mago wilimo rugeka huno metere hu'ne.
The wheels looked like they were made of topaz, and all four wheels were the same. In the middle of each wheel was what looked like another wheel set crossways.
17 Hagi ana zagaramimo'za 4'a kaziga zamavugosa hunte'nazanki'za, vunaku'ma hazankazigama nevu'za, rukrahera osu amne vu fatgo hu'naze.
They could move in any direction without turning as they did so.
18 Hagi ana wiliramimofoma eri koravema hunte'nea ainiramimo'a ra huno za'za hu'negeno rama'a avurgaramimo megagi'ne.
The wheel rims were impressively high, and all of the four rims were covered in eyes.
19 Hagi kasefa'ma hu'za mani'naza zagamo'zama kama nevazageno'a, ana wilimo'za magoka vuge, haresgama hu'za marerizage'za zamagranena ana nehaze.
As the beings moved so did the wheels next to them, and when the beings flew up, the wheels did too.
20 Ina kazigoma avamu'mo'ma virega nevazageno, wilimo'zanena vu'naze. Na'ankure kasefa'ma huza mani'naza zagaramimokizmi avamu'mo'a ana wiliramimpina mani'ne.
They would go wherever the Spirit went. The wheels would lift up beside them, because the Spirit of the beings was in the wheels to direct them.
21 Hagi ana zagaramimo'zama nevazageno'a, ana wiliramimo'za nevazageno, ome otizage'za ome oneti'za, haresgama hazage'za, zamagranena magoka ana zanke huza haresga hu'naze. Na'ankure kasefa'ma hu'za mani'naza zagaramimokizmi avamu'mo'a, ana wiliramimpi mani'ne.
When the beings moved, the wheels moved; when they stopped, the wheels stopped; and when they flew up from the ground, the wheels flew up beside them, because the Spirit of the beings was in the wheels to direct them.
22 Hagi ana zagaramimofo zamasenirega anagamu kankamumpina aisire'ma zagema rentegeno'ma rumarave nehiaza huno rumsa huvagare'ne.
Extending above the heads of the being was something that looked like an amazing expanse that glittered like ice crystal.
23 Hagi fenkama kazigama me'nea kankamumpina ana zagamo'za tare zamagekona rutare'za mago'mofo agekonamo'a magomofo agekonare avako hutere nehazageno, tare zamagekonanura zamavufaga refitetere hu'naze.
Under this expanse the wings of the beings spread out toward one another. Each of them also had two wings that covered its body.
24 Hagi ana zagamo'za hare'zama nevazageno'a zamagekonamofo zamagasasamo'a rama'a timofo agasasagna nehigeno, Hankavenentake Anumzamofo agerumo'ma nehiankna nehigeno, rama'a sondia vahetmimofo zmagasasankna nehigena antahi'noe. Hagi kaza'ma osu uomaneti'za, zamagekona atrazageno urami'ne.
When the beings moved, I heard the sound their wings made. It was like the roar of a thundering waterfall, like the voice of the Almighty, like the noise of an army on the march. Whenever they stopped, they folded their wings.
25 Hagi zamagekona atrazageno uramige'zama o'matizageno'a, anagamu zamasenirega kankamumpinti mago ageru aru'ne.
A voice spoke from beyond the expanse over their heads while they were standing still with their wings folded.
26 Hagi ana zagaramimofo zamasenirega anagamu kankamumpina safie nehaza havereti tro hu'naza kini tra me'ankna higeno, ana tratera vahe'ma maniaza hu'nege'na ke'noe.
Above the expanse over their heads I saw what looked like a throne made of lapis lazuli. Sitting on the throne high above was a being who looked like a man.
27 Hagi ana vahe'mofona afafafinti'ma mareri anagate'nea avufgamo'a, tefi'zoma hu'nea ainireti'ma hiaza huno rumsa hugagi'ne. Hagi afafafinti'ma mefenkamuma te'nea avufgamo'a tevenefa kna higeno, tusi'a masamo masanentake huno ana nera rugaginte'ne.
From what seemed to be his waist upwards, he looked like glowing metal with fire inside and everywhere around. From what seemed to be his waist downwards, I saw what looked like fire. He was surrounded by very bright light.
28 Ana ne'mofoma rugagima ante'nea masazamo'a, ko'ma ru knafima furagenamo'ma rugaginteankna hu'ne. Ra Anumzamofo hanavemofo masamo e'inara hu'ne. Hagi ana zama nege'na, navugosaregati mopafi masene'na nentahugeno mago vahe'mo nanekea hu'ne.
The bright light surrounding him was like a rainbow shining through the clouds on a rainy day. This was what the glory of the Lord looked like. When I saw it, I fell facedown on the ground, and then I heard someone speaking to me.
