Ezequiel 1
1 E sucedeu que, aos trinta anos, no quarto [mês], aos cinco do mês, estando eu em meio dos exilados, junto ao rio Quebar, os céus se abriram, e vi visões de Deus.
And it happened that, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth of the month, when I was in the midst of the captives beside the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw the visions of God.
2 Aos cinco do mês, que foi no quinto ano do cativeiro do rei Joaquim,
On the fifth of the month, the same is the fifth year of the transmigration of king Joachin,
3 verdadeiramente veio a palavra do SENHOR ao sacerdote Ezequiel, filho de Buzi, na terra dos caldeus, junto ao rio Quebar; e ali a mão do SENHOR esteve sobre ele.
the word of the Lord came to Ezekiel, a priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans, next to the river Chebar. And the hand of the Lord was over him there.
4 Então olhei, e eis que um vento tempestuoso vinha do norte, uma grande nuvem, e um fogo incandescente, e ao seu redor um resplendor, e no meio do fogo uma coisa que parecia como de âmbar,
And I saw, and behold, a whirlwind arrived from the north. And a great cloud, wrapped in fire and brightness, was all around it. And from its midst, that is, from the midst of the fire, there was something with the appearance of amber.
5 E no meio dela havia a semelhança de quatro animais; e esta era sua aparência; eles tinham semelhança humana.
And in its midst, there was the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: the likeness of a man was in them.
6 E cada um tinha quatro rostos, e cada um quatro asas.
Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings.
7 E suas pernas eram retas, e a planta de seus pés como a planta de pé de bezerro; e reluziam como o bronze polido.
Their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their foot was like the sole of the foot of a calf, and they sparkled with the appearance of glowing brass.
8 E [tinham] mãos humanas debaixo de suas asas, em seus quatro lados; [assim] os quatro [tinham] seus rostos e suas asas.
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on the four sides. And they had faces with the wings on the four sides.
9 Suas asas se juntavam umas às outras. Não viravam quando se moviam; cada um andava na direção de seu rosto.
And their wings were joined to one another. They did not turn as they went. Instead, each one advanced before his face.
10 E a aparência de seus rostos era [como] rosto de homem; e rosto de leão à direita nos quatro; e à esquerda rosto de boi nos quatro; também havia nos quatro um rosto de águia;
But as for the likeness of their face, there was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right of each of the four, then the face of an ox on the left of each of the four, and the face of an eagle above each of the four.
11 [Assim] eram seus rostos. E suas asas estavam estendidas por cima, cada um duas, as quais se juntavam; e as outras duas cobriam seus corpos.
Their faces and their wings were extended above: two wings of each one were joined together, and two covered their bodies.
12 E cada um se movia na direção de seu rosto; para onde o espírito se dirigia, eles iam; não viravam quando se moviam.
And each one of them advanced before his face. Wherever the impetus of the spirit was to go, there they went. And they did not turn as they advanced.
13 Quanto à semelhança dos animais, sua aparência era como pedaços de carvão acesos, como aparência de tochas acesas; o fogo se movia entre os animais; e brilhava intensamente, e do fogo saíam relâmpagos.
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 dashing in the midst of the living creatures, a bright fire, with lightning going forth from the fire.
14 E os animais corriam e voltavam, à semelhança de relâmpagos.
And the living creatures went and returned like flashes of lightning.
15 E enquanto eu estava vendo os animais, eis que uma roda estava na terra junto aos animais, junto a seus quatro rostos.
And as I beheld the living creatures, there appeared above the earth, next to the living creatures, one wheel having four faces.
16 E a aparência das rodas, e sua feitura, era como da cor do berilo; e as quatro tinham uma mesma semelhança; sua aparência e sua obra era como se uma roda estivesse no meio de [outra] roda.
And the appearance of the wheels and their work was like the appearance of the sea. And each of the four were similar to one another. And their appearance and work was like a wheel in the center of a wheel.
17 Quando andavam, moviam-se sobre seus quatro lados; não viravam quando se moviam.
Going forth, they went by means of their four parts. And they did not turn as they went.
18 E seus aros eram altos e espantosos; e seus aros estavam cheios de olhos ao redor das quatro [rodas].
Also, the size and height and appearance of the wheels was dreadful. And the entire body was full of eyes all around each of the four.
19 E quando os animais andavam, as rodas andavam junto a eles: e quando os animais se levantavam da terra, levantavam-se [também] as rodas.
And when the living creatures advanced, the wheels advanced together with them. And when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels, too, were lifted up at the same time.
20 Para onde o espírito queria ir, iam, para onde era o espírito ia; e as rodas [também] se levantavam com eles, pois o espírito dos animais estava nas rodas.
Wherever the spirit went, as the spirit was going forth to that place, the wheels, too, were lifted up together, so as to follow them. For the spirit of life was in the wheels.
21 Quando eles andavam, elas andavam; e quando eles paravam, elas paravam; e quando se levantavam da terra, as rodas se levantavam com eles; pois o espírito dos animais estava nas rodas.
When going forth, they went forth, and when standing still, they stood still. And when they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels, too, were lifted up together, so as to follow them. For the spirit of life was in the wheels.
22 E sobre as cabeças dos animais havia algo semelhante a um firmamento, da cor de um cristal espantoso, estendido acima sobre suas cabeças.
And above the heads of the living creatures was the likeness of a firmament: similar to crystal, but dreadful to behold, and extending over their heads from above.
23 E debaixo do firmamento estavam suas asas deles estendidas uma à outra; a cada um tinha duas, e outras duas com que cobriam seus corpos.
And their wings were straight under the firmament, one toward the other. One of them was covered by two wings on his body, and the other was covered similarly.
24 E ouvi o ruído de suas asas quando se moviam, como o som de muitas águas, como a voz do Onipotente, o ruído de uma multidão, como o som de um exército. Quando paravam, abaixavam suas asas.
And I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of many waters, like the sound of the sublime God. When they walked, it was like the sound of a multitude, like the sound of an army. And when they stood still, their wings were let down.
25 E quando se paravam e abaixavam suas asas, ouvia-se uma voz de cima do firmamento que estava sobre suas cabeças.
For when a voice came from above the firmament, which was over their heads, they stood still, and they put down their wings.
26 E acima do firmamento que estava sobre suas cabeças, havia a figura de um trono, que parecia com a pedra de safira; e sobre a figura do trono havia uma semelhança que parecia com um homem sentado acima dele.
And above the firmament, which was suspended over their heads, there was the likeness of a throne, with the appearance of the sapphire stone. And over the likeness of the throne, there was a likeness with the appearance of a man above it.
27 E vi o que parecia com o bronze polido, com a aparência de fogo ao seu redor do lado de dentro, da aparência de sua cintura para cima; e de sua cintura para baixo, vi que parecia como fogo, e havia um resplendor ao redor dele;
And I saw something with the appearance of amber, with the likeness of fire within it and all around it. And from his waist and upward, and from his waist downward, I saw something with the appearance of fire shining all around.
28 Tal como a aparência do arco celeste, que surge nas nuvens em dia de chuva, assim era o aparência do resplendor ao redor. Esta foi a visão da semelhança da glória do SENHOR. E quando eu a vi, caí sobre meu rosto, e ouvi voz de um que falava.
There was the appearance of the rainbow, as when it is in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the splendor on every side.
