< Ezekiel 1 >

1 Pripetilo se je torej v tridesetem letu, v četrtem mesecu, na peti dan meseca, ko sem bil med ujetniki pri reki Kebár, da so se odprla nebesa in zagledal sem Božja videnja.
And it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day of the month I being in the midst of them of the captivity, by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Na peti dan meseca, kar je bilo peto leto ujetništva kralja Jojahína,
On the fifth of the month, that was the fifth year of the captivity of King Jehoiachin,
3 je prišla Gospodova beseda izrecno k duhovniku Ezekielu, Buzijevemu sinu, v deželi Kaldejcev, pri reki Kebár in tam je bila nad njim Gospodova roka.
in very deed came the word of Yahweh unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar, —yea the hand of Yahweh, came on him there.
4 Pogledal sem in glej, vrtinčast veter je prišel iz severa, velik oblak in ogenj ga je obsegal in okoli njega je bil sijaj in iz njegove srede kakor jantarjeva barva ven iz srede ognja.
So then I beheld and lo! a tempestuous wind coming out of the North, a great cloud and a fire catching hold of itself, and it had a brightness round about, —and out of the midst thereof, as burnished copper to look upon out of the midst of the fire;
5 Prav tako je iz njegove srede prišla podobnost štirih živih ustvarjenih bitij. In to je bil njihov videz; imela so podobnost človeka.
and out of the midst thereof, a likeness of four living ones, and this was their appearance, the likeness of a man, had they;
6 Vsako je imelo štiri obraze in vsako je imelo štiri peruti.
and four faces each, and four wings each, had they;
7 Njihova stopala so bila ravna stopala in podplat njihovih stopal je bil podoben telečjemu kopitu, in lesketala so se podobno barvi zloščenega brona.
and their feet were straight feet, —and the sole of their feet was like the sole of the foot of a calf, but sparkling, as shining bronze to look upon;
8 Pod svojimi perutmi, na svojih štirih straneh, so imela človeške roke in ta štiri so imela svoje obraze in svoje peruti.
and the hands of a man! were under their wings, on their four sides, —and their faces and their wings belonged to the four of them:
9 Njihove peruti so bile pridružene druga k drugi; niso se obračala, ko so hodila; šla so vsaka naravnost naprej.
joined to each other, were their wings, —they turned not when they went, each one straight before him, did they go;
10 Kar zadeva podobnost njihovih obrazov, ta štiri so imela človeški obraz in obraz leva na desni strani in ta štiri so imela obraz vola na levi strani; ta štiri so imela tudi obraz orla.
and the likeness of their faces was the face of a man, with the face of a lion to the right of the four of them, and the face of an ox on the left, of the four of them, —the face of an eagle, also had they four;
11 Takšni so bili njihovi obrazi. Njihove peruti so bile iztegnjene navzgor; dve peruti vsakega sta bili pridruženi druga k drugi, dve pa sta pokrivali njihova telesa.
and their wings were spread above, — two of each joined one another, and two covered their bodies;
12 Hodila so vsako naravnost naprej. Kamor naj bi šel duh, [tja] so šla, in niso se obračala, ko so hodila.
and each one straight before him, did they go, —whithersoever the spirit was minded to go, they went, they turned not when they went.
13 Kar se tiče podobnosti živih ustvarjenih bitij, je bil njihov videz podoben gorečemu ognjenemu oglju in podoben videzu svetilk. Ta je šel gor in dol med živimi ustvarjenimi bitji in ogenj je bil svetel in iz ognja se je dvigovalo bliskanje.
As for the likeness of the living ones, their appearance was like live coals of fire burning up like the appearance of torches, the same went to and fro between the living ones, —and the fire had brightness and out of the fire, went forth a lightning.
14 Živa ustvarjena bitja so tekala in se vračala kakor videz bliska strele.
And the living ones ran and returned, —like the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 Medtem ko sem gledal živa ustvarjena bitja, sem na zemlji zagledal eno kolo poleg živih ustvarjenih bitij, z njegovimi štirimi obrazi.
And I looked at the living ones, —and lo! one wheel upon the earth beside the living ones for each of his four faces,
16 Videz koles in njihovo delo je bilo podobno barvi berila. Ta štiri so imela eno podobnost, in njihov videz in njihovo delo je bilo, kakor bi bilo kolo v sredi kolesa.
The appearance of the wheels and of their structure was like a Tarshish-stone to look upon, and they four had one likeness, —and their appearance and their structure were just as would be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
17 Ko so hodila, so hodila na svoje štiri strani, in ko so hodila, se niso obračala.
Upon their four sides, when they went, so did they go, —they turned not when they went.
18 Kar se tiče njihovih platišč, so bila tako visoka, da so bila grozna, in njihova platišča so bila polna oči naokoli teh štirih.
As for their rings, they were so high that they were terrible, -and their rings full of eyes round about, had they four.
19 Ko so živa ustvarjena bitja hodila, so poleg njih šla kolesa. In ko so bila živa ustvarjena bitja dvignjena z zemlje, so bila dvignjena kolesa.
And when the living ones went, the wheels went beside them, —and when the living ones were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up:
20 Kamor naj bi šel duh, so šla, tja naj bi šel njihov duh, in kolesa so bila dvignjena nasproti njih, kajti v kolesih je bil duh živega ustvarjenega bitja.
whithersoever the spirit was minded to go, they went—thither was the spirit minded to go, —and the wheels would be lifted up along with them, for the spirit of the living one was in the wheels:
21 Ko so tista šla, so šla ta; in ko so tista stala, so stala ta; in ko so bila tista dvignjena z zemlje, so bila kolesa dvignjena nasproti njih, kajti v kolesih je bil duh živega ustvarjenega bitja.
when they went, these went, and when they stood, these stood, —and when they were lifted up from off the earth, the wheels were lifted up along with them, for the spirit of the living one was in the wheels.
22 Podobnost nebesnega svoda nad glavami živega ustvarjenega bitja je bila kakor barva strašnega kristala, razprostrtega zgoraj, nad njihovimi glavami.
And there was a likeness over the heads of the living one—an expanse, like terrible crystal to look upon, -stretched forth over their heads above.
23 Pod nebesnim svodom so bile njihove peruti ravne druga proti drugi. Vsako je imelo dve, ki sta pokrili na tej strani in vsako je imelo dve, ki sta pokrili na oni strani njihovih teles.
And under the expanse, their wings were straight, one towards another, —each one had two covering on this side, and each one had two covering on that side, their bodies.
24 In ko so hodila, sem slišal šum njihovih peruti, podoben hrumenju velikih vodá, kakor glas Vsemogočnega, glas govora kakor hrup vojske. Ko so stala, so svoje peruti povesila.
And I heard the sound of their wings, as the sound of many waters, as the sound of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of a storm as the sound of a host, —when they stood, they let down their wings,
25 Bil je glas izpod nebesnega svoda, ki je bil nad njihovimi glavami, ko so stala in spustila svoje peruti.
And there was a voice above the expanse that was over their head, —when they stood, they let down their wings.
26 Nad nebesnim svodom, ki je bil nad njihovimi glavami, je bila podobnost prestola, kakor videz kamna safira. Na podobnosti prestola je bila podobnost kakor videz človeka nad njim.
And above the expanse that was over their heads, as the appearance of a sapphire stone, was the likeness of a throne, —and upon the likeness of a throne, was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.
27 Videl sem kakor barvo jantarja, kakor videz ognja okrog in okrog znotraj njega, od videza njegovih ledij navzgor in celo od videza njegovih ledij navzdol sem videl, kakor bi bil videz ognja in ta je imel sijaj vsenaokrog.
And I saw as burnished copper to look upon, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upwards and from the appearance of his loins and downwards, saw I as the appearance of fire, and he had brightness round about:
28 Kakor videz mavrice, ki je na oblaku na deževen dan, takšen je bil videz sijaja naokoli. To je bil videz podobnosti Gospodove slave. Ko sem to zagledal, sem padel na svoj obraz in slišal glas nekoga, ki je spregovoril.
as the appearance of the bow which is in a cloud on a day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about, that was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Yahweh, and when I saw, I fell upon my face, and heard a voice of one speaking.
