Hisqiʼeel 1
1 Waggaa soddommaffaa keessa, bultii shanaffaa jiʼa afuraffaatti utuu ani Laga Kebaar biratti boojiʼamtoota gidduu jiruu samiiwwan ni banaman; anis mulʼata Waaqaa nan arge.
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in the midst of the captives by the river Chobar, the heavens were opened, and I saw the visions of God.
2 Jiʼa sana keessaas bultii shanaffaatti jechuunis Yehooyaakiin Mootichi boojiʼamee waggaa shanaffaatti,
On the fifth day of the month, the same was the fifth year of the captivity of king Joachin,
3 dubbiin Waaqayyoo Laga Kebaar biratti biyya Baabilonotaa keessatti gara Hisqiʼeel lubicha ilma Buuz dhufe. Achittis harki Waaqayyoo isa irra ture.
The word of the Lord came to Ezechiel the priest the son of Bud in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chobar: and the hand of the Lord was there upon him.
4 Anis milʼadhee bubbee hamaa karaa kaabaatiin dhufaa jiru jechuunis duumessa guddaa balaqqeessa ifuu fi ifa guddaan marfame tokkon arge. Wiirtuun ibidda sanaas sibiila ibiddaan diimeffame fakkaata ture;
And I saw, and behold a whirlwind came out of the north: and a great cloud, and a fire infolding it, and brightness was about it: and out of the midst thereof, that is, out of the midst of the fire, as it were the resemblance of amber:
5 ibidda sana keessas waan uumamawwan jiraatoo afur fakkaatu tokkotu ture. Bifti isaas bifa namaa fakkaata ture;
And in the midst thereof the likeness of four living creatures: and this was their appearance: there was the likeness of a man in them.
6 tokkoon tokkoon isaanii fuula afur afurii fi qoochoo afur afur qabu turan.
Every one had four faces, and every one four wings.
7 Miilli isaanii qajeelaa dha; faanni isaanii immoo kottee jabbii fakkaatee akka naasii dibameetti ni calaqqisa ture.
Their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their foot was like the sole of a calf’s foot, and they sparkled like the appearance of glowing brass.
8 Qoochoo isaanii jalaanis qixa afraniin harka namaa qabu ture. Afran isaanii hundi fuulaa fi qoochoo qabu turan;
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides: and they bad faces, and wings on the four sides,
9 qoochoon isaaniis wal tuqa ture. Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii qajeelanii fuula duratti deeman; yeroo deemanittis of duuba hin milʼatan ture.
And the wings of one were joined to the wings of another. They turned not when they went: but every one went straight forward.
10 Fuulli isaanii kana fakkaata ture: Afran isaanii iyyuu tokkoon tokkoon isaanii fuula namaa qabu ture; karaa mirgaatiin tokkoon tokkoon isaanii fuula leencaa, karaa bitaatiin immoo fuula qotiyyoo qabu ture; akkasumas tokkoon tokkoon isaanii fuula risaa qabu ture.
And as for the likeness of their faces: there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side of all the four: and the face of an ox, on the left side of all the four: and the face of an eagle over all the four.
11 Egaa fuulli isaanii akkas ture. Qoochoon isaaniis ol diriirfama ture. Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii qoochoo lama lama qabu ture. Qoochoo tokkoo tokkoo isaanii karaa lamaaniinuu qoochoo uumama kaanii tuqa; qoochoon lama immoo dhagna isaa haguuga ture.
And their faces, and their wings were stretched upward: two wings of every one were joined, and two covered their bodies:
12 Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii qajeelanii fuula duratti ni deeman. Isaanis utuu of irra hin milʼatin iddoo hafuurri deemu hunda dhaqu turan.
And every one of them went straight forward: whither the impulse of the spirit was to go, thither they went: and they turned not when they went.
13 Bifti uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaa cilee ibiddaa kan bobaʼu yookaan guca bobaʼu fakkaata ture. Uumamawwan sana gidduus ibiddi asii fi achi sosochoʼa ture; ni ifas ture; bakakkaanis isa keessaa ni baʼa ture.
And as for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like that of burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps. This was the vision running to and fro in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, and lightning going forth from the fire.
14 Uumamawwan sunis akka ifa bakakkaa asii fi achi darbatamu ture.
And the living creatures ran and returned like flashes of lightning.
15 Anis akkuman uumamawwan jiraatoo sana ilaaleen tokkoo tokkoo uumama fuula afur afur qabu sanaa cinatti geengoo tokko tokko nan arge.
Now as I beheld the living creatures, there appeared upon the earth by the living creatures one wheel with four faces.
16 Biftii fi haalli geengoowwan sun ittiin hojjetamaniis akkana ture: Isaanis akka dhagaa gati jabeessa biiralee jedhamuu calaqqisu ture; afran isaanii hundinuu wal fakkaatu ture. Tokkoon tokkoon geengoo sanaa waan geengoo kaanitti diramee hojjetame fakkaata ture.
And the appearance of the wheels, and the work of them was like the appearance of the sea: and the four had all one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
17 Isaanis yommuu deemanitti utuu of irra hin milʼatin kallattii afran kamiin iyyuu deeman; yommuu uumamawwan sun deemanis geengoowwan kallattii hin geeddaratan ture.
When they went, they went by their four parts: and they turned not when they went.
18 Qarqarri geengoowwan sanaas ol dheeraa fi sodaachisaa ture; qarqarri geengoowwanii afranuus guutumaan guutuutti ijaan marfamanii turan.
The wheels had also a size, and a height, and a dreadful appearance: and the whole body was full of eyes round about all the four.
19 Yeroo uumamawwan jiraatoon sun deemanitti geengoowwan isaan cinaan jiranis ni deeman; yommuu uumamawwan jiraatoon ol kaʼanitti geengoowwanis ol kaʼan.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels also went together by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels also were lifted up with them.
20 Iddoo hafuurri dhaqu hundas ni dhaqu ture; sababii hafuurri uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaa geengoowwan keessa jiruuf geengoowwanis isaan wajjin ol kaʼan.
Whithersoever the spirit went, thither as the spirit went the wheels also were lifted up withal, and followed it: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
21 Yommuu uumamawwan sun deemanitti isaanis ni deeman; yommuu uumamawwan dhaabatanitti isaanis ni dhaabatan; sababii hafuurri uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaa geengoowwan keessa jiruuf yommuu uumamawwan sun lafaa ol kaʼanitti geengoowwanis isaanuma wajjin ol kaʼan.
When those went these went, and when those stood these stood, and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels also were lifted up together, and followed them: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
22 Mataa uumamawwan jiraatoo sanaatiin ol waan akka bantii samii kan akka bilillee calaqqisuu fi kan nama sodaachisu tokkotu diriirfamee ture.
And over the heads of the living creatures was the likeness of the firmament, as the appearance of crystal terrible to behold, and stretched out over their heads above.
23 Bantii samii sana jalatti qoochoowwan isaaniis walitti diriirfamanii turan; tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis qoochoowwan ittiin dhagna isaanii haguuggatan lama lama qabu turan.
And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other, every one with two wings covered his body, and the other was covered in like manner.
24 Yeroo uumamawwan sun deemanitti ani sagalee qoochoowwan isaanii nan dhagaʼe; sagaleen kunis sagalee akka bishaan guutee huursuu, akka sagalee Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼuutii fi akka waca tuuta loltootaa ture. Isaan yeroo dhaabatan qoochoowwan isaanii gad qabatu ture.
And I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, as it were the voice of the most high God: when they walked, it was like the voice of a multitude, like the noise of an army, and when they stood, their wings were let down.
25 Akkuma isaan qoochoo isaanii gad qabatanii dhaabataniinis bantii samii kan mataa isaaniitiin ol jiru sana irraa sagaleen tokko dhufe.
For when a voice came from above the firmament, that was over their heads, they stood, and let down their wings.
26 Bantii samii kan mataa isaaniitii ol jiru gubbaa waan akka teessoo sanpeer fakkaatu tokkotu ture; teessoo sanaa olittis fakkaattii akka fakkaattii namaa tokkotu ture.
And above the firmament that was over their heads, was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of the sapphire stone, and upon the likeness of the throne, was a likeness as of the appearance of a man above upon it.
27 Anis waan mudhii isaa fakkaatuun olitti sibiila diimeffamee ibidda fakkaatu kan ibiddaan guutame tokko nan arge; waan mudhii isaa fakkaatu sanaan gadittis inni ibidda fakkaata ture; ifni guddaanis isa marsee ture.
And I saw as it were the resemblance of amber as the appearance of fire within it round about: from his loins and upward, and from his loins downward, I saw as it were the resemblance of fire shining round about.
28 Gonfoon ifaa kan naannoo isaa ture sunis bifa sabbata Waaqaa kan guyyaa roobni roobuu fakkaata ture. Kunis bifa fakkaattii ulfina Waaqayyoo ture. Anis yeroon waan kana argetti addaan lafatti gombifamee sagalee waan dubbachaa jiru tokkoo nan dhagaʼe.
As the appearance of the rainbow when it is in a cloud on a rainy day: this was the appearance of the brightness round about.
