इजकिएल 1
1 तिसौं वर्षको चौथो महिनाको पाँचौं दिनमा जब म निर्वासितसँग कबार नहरको किनारमा बसिरहँदा यस्तो भयो । आकाश खोलियो र मैले परमेश्वरका दर्शनहरू देखें ।
[I am] Ezekiel, a priest, the son of Buzi. When I was 30 years [old], I [living] among [Israeli] people who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) [and had come to Babylon]. I was living along the Kebar River/ [south of Babylon]. Almost five years after King Jehoiachin had been (exiled/forced to leave Judah), on the fifth day of the fourth [of that year, it was as though] the sky was opened and I saw visions from God. On that day,
2 त्यस महिनाको पाँचौं दिनमा— यहोयाकीन राजा निर्वासित भएको यो पाँचौं वर्ष थियो—
3 कल्दीहरूको देशमा कबार नहरको किनारमा परमप्रभुको वचन बूजीको छोरो इजकिएल पुजारीकहाँ आयो, र त्यहाँ परमप्रभुको हात तिनीमाथि थियो ।
God gave me [in visions here] in Babylonia, and I felt the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me.
4 तब मैले हेरें, र उत्तरबाट आँधीबेहरी आइरहेको थियो । एउटा विशाल बादल, बिजुलीको चमकसमेत, अनि त्यसको वरिपरि र भित्र चहकिलो उज्यालो थियो, र त्यस आगोको माझ जल्दो पहेंलो धातुझैं थियो ।
[In one of the visions, I saw a] windstorm coming from the north. There was a huge cloud, and lightning was flashing continually, and a brilliant light surrounded the cloud. In the center of where the lightning was flashing there was something that resembled glowing bronze.
5 माझमा चार जीवित प्राणीहरूजस्ता थिए । तिनीहरूका स्वरूप यस्तो थियोः तिनीहरू मानिसको स्वरूपजस्ता थिए,
In the center of the storm I saw what resembled four living creatures. They resembled humans,
6 तर तिनीहरू हरेकका चारवटा मुहार थिए, र हरेकका प्राणीका चारवटा पखेटा थिए ।
but each of them had four faces and four wings [DOU].
7 तिनीहरूका गोडा सीधा थिए, तर तिनीहरूका खुट्टा बाछाका खुरजस्ता थिए जो टल्काइराखेका काँसाजस्तै टल्कन्थे ।
Their legs were straight. Their feet resembled the hooves of calves, and the creatures shone like polished bronze.
8 तापनि तिनीहरूका पखेटामुनि चारैतिर मानिसका हातहरू थिए । ती चारैका मुहार र पखेटाहरू यस्ता थिएः
On their four sides under their wings there were hands like humans have.
9 एउटाको पखेटाले अर्काको पखेटालाई छोएको थियो, कतै जाँदा तिनीहरू फर्कंदैन थिए । बरु, हरेक सोझै अगाडि हिंड्थ्यो ।
As the four [stood there, they formed a circle/square], with their wings touching each other. They did not turn when they were moving; they went straight ahead.
10 तिनीहरूका मुहार मानिसको झैं थियो । ती चारैको दाहिनेपट्टिको मुहार सिंहको जस्तो र देब्रेपट्टिको अनुहारचाहिं गोरुको जस्तो थियो । ती चारैवटाको चिलको जस्तो अनुहार पनि थियो ।
[of the creatures had four faces]. The face that was in front [of each one was a face that] resembled a human face. The face on the right side resembled a lion’s face. The face on the left side resembled an ox’s face. The face in back resembled an eagle’s face.
11 तिनीहरूका मुहार यस्तै थिए, र तिनीहरूका पखेटाचाहिं बाहिर मास्तिर फैलिएका थिए । हरेकका दुईवटा पखेटाले चाहिं एउटाले अर्काको पखेटालाई छोएका थिए, र दुईवटा पखेटाले आ-आफ्ना शरीर ढाकेका थिए ।
Two of each creature’s wings were lifted up and touched the wings of the creatures that were on each side. The other two wings were folded against the creature’s body.
12 तिनीहरू हरेक सोझै हिंड्थे, ताकि आत्माले जता-जता लग्यो तिनीहरू त्यतै जान्थे, तिनीहरू यताउता नफर्की हिंड्थे ।
The creatures went straight ahead in whatever direction the [that controlled/guided them] wanted them to go, without changing directions while they were moving.
13 ती जीवित प्राणीहरूको आकृति जलिरहेको आगोको भुङ्ग्रोजस्तो, राँकोहरूजस्ता थिए । ती प्राणीहरूको बिचमा चम्किलो आगो यताउता जान्थ्यो, र त्यहाँ बिजुलीका चमकहरू थिए ।
[four] creatures resembled burning coals or torches. A blazing fire moved back and forth among the creatures, and lighting flashed from among them.
14 ती जीवित प्राणीहरू तिव्र गतिले अघि पछि जान्थे, र तिनीहरू बिजुलीको चमकजस्ता देखिन्थे ।
The creatures moved back and [extremely rapidly], like [SIM] flashes of lightning.
15 तब मैले ती जीवित प्राणीहरूलाई हेरें र ती चारै मुहार भएका हरेक प्राणीको छेउमा मैले जमिनमा एउटा पाङ्ग्रा देखें ।
While I looked at the four living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each of them.
16 ती पाङ्ग्राहरूका आकार र बनावट यस्ता थिएः हरेक पाङ्ग्रा पीतमणिजस्तै थिए, र ती चारैवटा उस्तै किसिमका थिए । एउटा पाङ्ग्रो अर्को पाङ्ग्रोमा खप्टिएको भएझैं थियो ।
Each of the wheels was the same, and they all shone like [SIM] (chrysolite/a valuable green stone). Each seemed to have one wheel inside another wheel.
17 जसै ती हलचल गर्थे, तब कतै नफर्की ती चारैतिर हिंड्थे ।
Whenever they moved, they would go straight in one of the four directions that they faced; they did not [in another direction] while they moved.
18 तिनीहरूका घेरा अल्गा र डरलाग्दा थिए, किनकि ती चारै घेरा आँखाहरूले भरिएका थिए ।
The rims of the wheels were covered with eyes.
19 जब ती जीवित प्राणीहरू चलहल गर्थे, तब ती पाङ्ग्राहरू पनि साथसाथै हिंड्थे । जब ती जीवित प्राणीहरू जमिनबाट माथि उठ्थे, तब ती पाङ्ग्राहरू पनि उठ्थे ।
Whenever the living creatures moved, the wheels moved with them. [So] whenever the creatures rose from the ground, the [also] rose up.
20 आत्मा जता जानुहुन्थ्यो तिनीहरू त्यतै जान्थे, र ती पाङ्ग्राहरू पनि तिनीहरूसँगै उठ्थे, किनकि ती जीवित प्राणीहरूका आत्मा तिनै पाङ्ग्रामा थिए ।
Wherever the [that controlled the creatures] wanted the creatures to go, they went, and the wheels went with them, because the [that controlled/guided them] was in the wheels [DOU].
21 जब ती प्राणीहरू चलहल गर्थे, तब पाङ्ग्राहरू पनि चलहल गर्थे । अनि जब ती प्राणीहरू ठिङ्ग उभिन्थे, तब ती पाङ्ग्राहरू पनि ठिङ्ग उभिन्थे । ती प्राणीहरू जमिनबाट उठ्दा यी पाङ्ग्रा पनि तिनीहरूसँगै उठेर जान्थे, किनभने ती जीवित प्राणीहरूका आत्मा ती पाङ्ग्रामा नै थिए ।
Whenever the creatures moved, the wheels moved. Whenever the creatures [still], the wheels stopped. Whenever the creatures rose up from the ground, the wheels rose up with them.
22 ती जीवित प्राणीहरूका शिरको मास्तिर विशाल अर्धगोलाकार क्षेत्रजस्तै थियो । त्यो तिनीहरूको शिरमाथिबाट फैलिएको भयावह स्फटिकझैं देखिन्थ्यो ।
Above the heads of the creatures there was something that resembled a dome. It shone like ice (OR, crystal) shines, and it was awesome.
23 त्यो विशाल अर्धगोलाकार क्षेत्र मुन्तिर ती हरेक प्राणीका पखेटाहरू सोझै फैलिएका थिए र एउटाको पखेटाले अर्काको पखेटालाई छुन्थ्यो । हरेक जीवित प्राणीका आफूलाई ढाक्ने एकजोडी पखेटा थिए । हरेकसित आफूलाई ढाक्ने जोडी थियो ।
Under the dome, the creatures stretched out their wings. Each one had two wings; [each wing] stretched towards the creature [was next to] it, and two wings that were against the creature’s body.
24 तब मैले तिनीहरूका पखेटाको आवाज सुनें । त्यो आवाज धेरै पानीको हल्लाजस्तै थियो । जब तिनीहरू हलचल गर्थे, तब सर्वशक्तिमान्को आवाजजस्तो हुन्थ्यो । आँधीको वर्षाजस्तो थियो । सेनाको आवाजजस्तो थियो । जब तिनीहरू ठिङ्ग उभिन्थे, तब तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पखेटा तल झार्थे ।
Whenever the creatures moved, their wings made a sound that resembled the roar made by a rushing stream. It also sounded like the voice of Almighty God, and like [SIM] the noise of a huge army marching. Whenever the creatures stood [on the ground], they lowered their wings.
25 जब तिनीहरू ठिङ्ग उभिए र आफ्ना पखेटा तल झारे, तब तिनीहरूका शिरहरू मास्तिरको विशाल अर्धगोलाकार क्षेत्रबाट एउटा आवाज आयो ।
While they [on the ground] with their wings lowered, there was a voice from the dome that was over their heads.
26 तिनीहरू शिरमाथिका विशाल अर्धगोलाकार क्षेत्रमाथि एउटा सिंहासनजस्तो थियो जुन हेर्दा त्यो नीलमणीजस्तै देखिन्थ्यो, र त्यो सिंहासनजस्तोमा बस्नेको स्वरूप मानिसको जस्तो थियो ।
Above the dome was something that resembled [huge] [that was made of a huge] (sapphire/valuable blue stone). Sitting on the throne was someone that resembled a human.
27 मैले उहाँको कम्मरदेखि मास्तिर जल्दो धातुजस्तै भएको एउटा आकृति देखें । उहाँको कम्मरदेखि मुन्तिरको आकृति पनि आगोजस्तै देखियो, र उहाँको वरिपरी चहकिलो उज्यालोले घेरिराखेको थियो ।
I saw that above his waist his body resembled metal that was glowing as though it [a very hot] fire inside it. And I saw that below his waist there was a very brilliant light that surrounded him.
28 उहाँको वरिपरीको चम्किलो उज्यालो पानी परेको दिन बादलमा देखिने इन्द्रेनीको आकारझैं उज्ज्वल थियो । त्यो परमप्रभुका महिमासँग मिल्दो दोखिन्थ्यो । जब मैले त्यो देखें तब म घोप्टो परें, र एउटा बोलिरहेको आवाज मैले सुनें ।
[shone] like [SIM] a rainbow shines in the clouds on a rainy day. That was the brilliant light that represented the presence of Yahweh. When I saw it, I prostrated myself on the ground, and I heard him speak.
