Ezekieli 1
1 Ezalaki mokolo moko, mokolo ya mitano ya sanza ya minei, na mobu ya tuku misato, wana nazalaki pembeni ya ebale Kebari kati na bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu, likolo efungwamaki mpe namonaki bimoniseli ya Nzambe.
It came to passe in the thirtieth yere in the fourth moneth, and in the fift day of the moneth (as I was among the captiues by the riuer Chebar) that the heauens were opened and I sawe visions of GOD.
2 Kaka na mokolo ya mitano ya sanza ya mobu wana, elingi koloba mobu ya mitano ya bowumbu ya mokonzi Yeoyakini,
In the fift day of the moneth (which was the fift yere of King Ioiachins captiuitie)
3 Yawe alobaki na Ezekieli, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Buzi, pembeni ya ebale Kebari, kati na mokili ya bato ya Babiloni. Kuna, loboko na Yawe ezalaki likolo na ye.
The word of the Lord came vnto Ezekiel the Priest, the sonne of Buzi, in the lande of the Caldeans, by the riuer Chebar, where the hande of the Lord was vpon him.
4 Tango natalaki, namonaki mopepe moko ya makasi kowuta na ngambo ya nor; bongo mopepe yango ezalaki komema mapata minene nzela moko na mikalikali ya kongenga makasi, mpe kati na yango ezalaki kongenga lokola ebende kati na moto.
And I looked, and beholde, a whirlewinde came out of the North, a great cloude and a fire wrapped about it, and a brightnesse was about it, and in the middes thereof, to wit, in the middes of the fire came out as the likenesse of amber.
5 Na kati-kati na yango, namonaki biloko moko lokola bikelamu minei ya bomoi oyo ezalaki na lolenge ya moto.
Also out of the middes therof came the likenesse of foure beastes, and this was their forme: they had the appearance of a man.
6 Moko na moko kati na yango ezalaki na bilongi minei mpe mapapu minei.
And euery one had foure faces, and euery one had foure wings.
7 Makolo na yango ezalaki esembolama, matambe na yango ezalaki lokola matambe ya mwana ngombe ya mobali mpe ezalaki kongenga lokola bronze oyo bapetola na moto.
And their feete were streight feete, and the sole of their feete was like the sole of a calues foote, and they sparkled like the appearance of bright brasse.
8 Na se ya mapapu na yango, na bangambo na yango minei, ezalaki na maboko minei lokola maboko ya bato; mpe bikelamu nyonso minei ya bomoi ezalaki na bilongi mpe na mapapu na yango.
And the handes of a man came out from vnder their wings in the foure parts of them, and they foure had their faces, and their wings.
9 Mapapu na yango ezalaki kotutana moko na mosusu. Ekelamu moko na moko ezalaki kokende etala kaka na liboso mpe ezalaki kotala na sima te.
They where ioyned by their wings one to another, and when they went forth, they returned not, but euery one went streight forward.
10 Tala ndenge bilongi na yango ezalaki: ekelamu moko na moko kati na nyonso minei ezalaki na elongi lokola ya moto (na liboso): elongi lokola ya nkosi na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, elongi lokola ya ngombe ya mobali na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi mpe elongi lokola ya mpongo (na sima).
And the similitude of their faces was as the face of a man: and they foure had the face of a lyon on the right side, and they foure had the face of a bullocke on the left side: they foure also had the face of an eagle.
11 Bilongi na yango ezalaki nde bongo. Mapapu na yango ezalaki efungwama na likolo; ekelamu moko na moko ezalaki na mapapu mibale: lipapu moko ezalaki kotutana na lipapu moko ya ekelamu mosusu; mpe mapapu mibale ezalaki kobomba nzoto na yango.
Thus were their faces: but their wings were spred out aboue: two wings of euery one were ioined one to another, and two couered their bodies.
12 Moko na moko ezalaki kokende kaka liboso; ezalaki kokende bisika nyonso oyo Molimo azalaki kokamba yango mpe ezalaki kokende epai mosusu te.
And euery one went streight forward: they went whither their spirit led them, and they returned not when they went forth.
13 Bikelamu yango ya bomoi ezalaki lokola makala ya moto to lokola koni oyo ezali kopela moto. Moto ezalaki kotambola-tambola kati na bikelamu yango, ezalaki kongenga mpe mikalikali ezalaki kobima kati na yango.
The similitude also of the beasts, and their appearance was like burning coles of fire, and like the appearance of lampes: for the fire ran among the beastes, and the fire gaue a glister, and out of the fire there went lightning.
14 Bikelamu yango ezalaki kokende mpe kozonga lokola mikalikali.
And the beastes ranne, and returned like vnto lightning.
15 Tango nazalaki kotala bikelamu yango, namonaki pine moko na mabele, pembeni ya ekelamu ya bomoi moko na moko, liboso ya bilongi na yango minei.
Nowe as I behelde the beastes, beholde, a wheele appeared vpon the earth by the beastes, hauing foure faces.
16 Tala ndenge bapine yango ezalaki mpe ndenge basala yango: ezalaki kongenga lokola libanga ya Krizolite mpe nyonso minei ezalaki ekokana; bongo na ndenge basala yango, ezalaki lokola moko kati na mosusu.
The facion of the wheeles and their worke was like vnto a chrysolite: and they foure had one forme, and their facion, and their worke was as one wheele in another wheele.
17 Tango ekelamu moko na moko ezalaki kotambola, ezalaki kokende na ngambo oyo moko ya bilongi na yango ekotala, kati na bangambo na yango minei; ezalaki kobaluka na ngambo mosusu te mpe bapine na yango ezalaki kotengama te soki bikelamu yango ezali kotambola.
Whe they went, they went vpon their foure sides, and they returned not when they went.
18 Bajante ya bapine na yango ezalaki minene mpe somo: nyonso minei ezalaki etonda na miso zingazinga na yango.
They had also rings, and height, and were fearefull to beholde, and their rings were full of eyes, round about them foure.
19 Tango bikelamu ya bomoi ezalaki kotambola, bapine mpe ezalaki kotambola pembeni na yango; kasi soki epumbwe longwa na se, bapine mpe ezalaki kopumbwa.
And when the beastes went, the wheeles went with them: and when the beasts were lift vp from the earth, the wheeles were lift vp.
20 Esika nyonso Molimo azalaki kokende, bikelamu yango mpe ezalaki kokende; bongo bapine mpe ezalaki komata elongo na yango, pamba te molimo ya bikelamu ya bomoi ezalaki kati na bapine.
Whither the spirit led them, they went, and thither did the spirite of the wheeles leade them, and the wheeles were lifted vp besides them: for the spirit of the beastes was in the wheeles.
21 Tango bikelamu yango ezalaki kotambola, yango mpe ezalaki kotambola; soki etelemi, yango mpe ezalaki kotelema; soki epumbwe, yango mpe ezalaki kopumbwa elongo na bikelamu yango, pamba te molimo ya bikelamu ya bomoi ezalaki kati na bapine.
When the beastes went, they went, and when they stoode, they stoode, and when they were lifted vp from the earth, the wheeles were lifted vp besides them: for the spirite of the beastes was in the wheeles.
22 Likolo ya mito ya bikelamu yango ya bomoi ezalaki na eloko moko lokola mapata ya likolo, oyo ezalaki kongenga makasi lokola libanga ya talo oyo ya krisitali.
And the similitude of the firmament vpon the heads of the beasts was wonderfull, like vnto chrystall, spred ouer their heads aboue.
23 Na se ya mapata yango, mapapu na yango ezalaki esembolama mpe etutana na mapapu ya baninga na yango; mpe moko na moko kati na bikelamu yango ezalaki na mapapu mibale oyo ezalaki kobomba nzoto na yango.
And vnder the firmament were their wings streight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which couered the, and euery one had two, which couered their bodies.
24 Tango bikelamu yango ezalaki kotambola, nazalaki koyoka makelele ya mapapu na yango lokola makelele ya bambonge ya ebale monene to lokola mongongo ya Nkolo-Na-Nguya-Nyonso to lokola lokito ya mampinga. Tango ezalaki kotelema, ezalaki kokitisa mapapu na yango.
And when they went foorth, I heard the noyse of their wings, like the noyse of great waters, and as the voyce of the Almightie, euen the voyce of speach, as the noyse of an host: and when they stood, they let downe their wings.
25 Na likolo ya mito na yango, mongongo moko ezalaki koyokana wuta na likolo ya mapata oyo ezalaki; tango ezalaki kotelema, ezalaki mpe kokitisa mapapu na yango.
And there was a voyce from the firmament, that was ouer their heads, when they stoode, and had let downe their wings.
26 Boye, na likolo ya mapata oyo ezalaki na likolo ya mito na yango, ezalaki na eloko moko lokola libanga ya talo ya langi ya bule mpe lokola kiti ya bokonzi basala na safiri; mpe na likolo ya kiti ya bokonzi yango, ezalaki na elilingi moko oyo ezalaki lokola moto.
And aboue the firmament that was ouer their heads, was the facion of a throne like vnto a saphir stone, and vpon the similitude of the throne was by appearance, as the similitude of a man aboue vpon it.
27 Namonaki lisusu ete likolo ya loketo na yango ezalaki kongenga lokola linzanza, zingazinga na yango ezalaki lokola moto, se ya loketo na yango ezalaki lokola moto; mpe mikalikali ya makasi ezingelaki yango.
And I sawe as the appearance of amber, and as the similitude of fire round about within it to looke to, euen from his loynes vpwarde: and to looke to, euen from his loynes downewarde, I sawe as a likenesse of fire, and brightnesse round about it.
28 Kongenga oyo ezingelaki yango ezalaki lokola monama na mapata na mokolo ya mvula; elilingi yango ezalaki lokola nkembo na Yawe. Tango namonaki yango, nakweyaki, elongi na ngai kino na mabele, mpe nayokaki mongongo ya moto moko koloba na ngai.
As the likenesse of the bowe, that is in the cloude in the day of raine, so was the appearance of the light round about. This was the appearance of the similitude of the glorie of the Lord: and when I sawe it, I fell vpon my face, and I heard a voyce of one that spake.
