यहेज्केल 1
1 १ माझ्या आयुष्याच्या तिसाव्या वर्षाच्या चौथ्या महिन्याच्या पाचव्या दिवशी, मी खबार नदीच्या तीरी दास्यात गेलेल्या लोकांसोबत राहत होतो. तेव्हा स्वर्ग उघडला आणि मी देवाचा दृष्टांत पाहिला.
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, as I [was] among the captives by the river of Chebar, [that] the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
In the fifth [day] of the month, which [was] the fifth year of king Jehoiachin’s captivity,
3 ३ खबार नदिच्या जवळ, खास्द्यांच्या देशात बूजीचा मुलगा यहेज्केल याजकाकडे परमेश्वर देवाचे वचन सामर्थ्याने आले व परमेश्वर देवाचा हात त्याच्यावर आला.
The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him.
4 ४ तेव्हा मी पाहिले उत्तरेकडून तुफानाचा वारा सुटला, तो एक अग्नीने धुमसणारा, मध्य भागात विजांचा पिवळसर प्रकाश मध्यभागी चमकत असलेला विशाल मेघ होता.
And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness [was] about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
Also out of the midst thereof [came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
And their feet [were] straight feet; and the sole of their feet [was] like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.
8 ८ त्यांच्या चोहोबाजूंना पंखाखाली त्यांना मनुष्याचे हात होते. त्या चौघांना त्यांचे मुखे व पंख याप्रमाणे होतेः
And [they had] the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.
9 ९ त्यांचे पंख त्यांच्या बाजूच्या प्राण्याच्या पंखांना स्पर्श करीत आणि पुढे जाण्यासाठी ते वळत नव्हते; त्याऐवजी त्यांच्यापैकी प्रत्येक आपल्यापुढे नीट सरळ चालत असे.
Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
10 १० त्या चौघांच्या मुखापैकी एकाचे मुख मनुष्याच्या तोंडासारखे दिसत होते, दुसऱ्याचे मुख सिंहाच्या तोंडासारखे, तिसऱ्याचे मुख बैलासारखे आणि चौथ्याचे मुख गरुडाच्या तोंडासारखे होते.
As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.
11 ११ त्यांची मुखे अशाप्रकारची होती आणि त्यांचे पंख एकमेकापासून वेगळे होते, प्रत्येक प्राण्याचे पंख दुसऱ्या प्राण्याच्या पंखांना स्पर्श करत होते.
Thus [were] their faces: and their wings [were] stretched upward; two [wings] of every one [were] joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; [and] they turned not when they went.
13 १३ ते जिवंत प्राणी जळत्या कोलीतासमान किंवा मशालीसमान दिसत होते; त्यांच्यातून प्रखर अग्नी निघत होता व विजा चकाकत होत्या.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance [was] like burning coals of fire, [and] like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
16 १६ त्या चाकांचे स्वरूप असे दिसत होतेः चारही चाके एक समान व वैडूर्य मण्यांसारखी होती; आणि जणूकाही चाकात चाक घातलेले असून त्यांना एकमेकांस छेदलेले असावे असा त्यांचा आकार होता.
The appearance of the wheels and their work [was] like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work [was] as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and] they turned not when they went.
As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings [were] full of eyes round about them four.
19 १९ जेव्हा ते जिवंत प्राणी चालत तेव्हा त्याच्या सोबत चाके चालत जेव्हा ते प्राणी पृथ्वीपासून उंच उडत तेव्हा त्यांची चाकेही त्यांच्या सोबत उंचावत होती.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 २० जेथे जिवंत प्राण्यांचा आत्मा त्यांना नेऊ इच्छित होता ते तिकडे जात होते. आत्मा त्यांना उंचावत होता आणि त्यांच्या चाकात त्यांचा आत्मा होता.
Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither [was their] spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
21 २१ जेव्हा केव्हा ते प्राणी चालत चाकेही हालचाल करीत, जेव्हा ते थांबत चाकेही थांबत, जेव्हा ते उंच उडत त्यांच्या सोबत चाकेही उंच उडत होती कारण त्यांचा आत्मा त्यांच्या चाकांत वास करीत होता.
When those went, [these] went; and when those stood, [these] stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
22 २२ त्या जिवंत प्राण्यांच्या मस्तकावर महागड्या घुमटासारखे चकाकणारे दिसत होते, त्यांच्या कपाळावर स्फटिकासारखे चमकत होते.
And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature [was] as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.
23 २३ घुमटाखाली प्राणी आपले पंख सरळ लांब पसरवत होते आणि एकमेकांच्या पंखांना ते स्पर्श करीत होते. प्रत्येक प्राण्याच्या पंखांच्या जोडीने आपले शरीर झाकीत आणि दोन-दोन पंखांनी स्वतःला आवरण करीत.
And under the firmament [were] their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
24 २४ तेव्हा मी त्यांच्या पंखांचा पाण्याच्या धबधब्यासारखा मोठा आवाज ऐकला. तो सर्वसामर्थ्य देवाच्या वाणीसारखा होता. ते चालत तेव्हा जोरदार पर्जन्यवृष्टीयुक्त वादळासमान ध्वनी होता. तो ध्वनी मोठ्या सेनेसारखा होता. जेव्हा ते थांबत असे तेव्हा ते आपले पंख खाली करत होते.
And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
25 २५ जेव्हा ते थांबत व आपले पंख खाली स्तब्ध ठेवीत तेव्हा त्यांच्या माथ्यावरील घुमटातून आवाज येत होता.
And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.
26 २६ त्यांच्या माथ्याच्या वरील घुमटाच्या भागात नीलरत्न जडीत सिंहासन दिसत होते, आणि सिंहासनावर मनुष्याच्या चेहऱ्या समान कोणी असल्याची जाणीव होत होती.
And above the firmament that [was] over their heads [was] the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne [was] the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
27 २७ त्याच्या ठायी सर्वत्र तृणमण्याच्या तेजासारखा प्रकाश मी पाहिला, त्याच्या कमरेपासून खाली अग्नीचा भास झाला, व त्याच्या भोवती प्रभा चमकत होती.
And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
28 २८ पाऊस पडतांना दिसणाऱ्या मेघधनुष्यासारखा तो भासत होता त्याच्या भोवती प्रखर तेजोमय प्रकाश होता. हे परमेश्वर देवाचे गौरवयुक्त तेज दिसत होते. जेव्हा मी हे पाहिले व माझ्यासोबत बोलणारी वाणी ऐकली तेव्हा मी उपडा पडलो.
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so [was] the appearance of the brightness round about. This [was] the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw [it], I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
