Ezekiel 1
1 Sa ikatatlumpung taon, sa ikaapat na buwan, at sa ikalimang araw ng buwan, nangyaring naninirahan akong kasama ng mga bihag sa tabi ng Kanal Kebar. Nabuksan ang kalangitan, at nakakita ako ng mga pangitain ng Diyos!
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 Chebar that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Noong ikalimang araw ng buwan na iyon—ito ang ikalimang taon ng pagkatapon kay Haring Jehoiakin,
In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,
3 dumating nang may kapangyarihan ang salita ni Yahweh kay Ezekiel na anak ni Buzi at ang pari sa lupain ng mga Caldeo sa tabi ng Kanal Kebar. Dumating ang kamay ni Yahweh sa kaniya roon.
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 Pagkatapos, tumingin ako, at mayroong dumarating na malakas na hangin mula sa hilaga—isang malaking ulap na may kumikinang na apoy sa loob nito, at liwanag ang nasa palibot at loob nito, at kulay ng ambar ang apoy sa loob ng ulap.
And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.
5 Sa gitna ay anyo ng apat na buhay na nilalang. Ito ang kanilang wangis: mayroon silang anyong tao,
And out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.
6 ngunit ang bawat isa sa kanila ay mayroong apat na mukha, at ang bawat isa sa mga nilalang ay may apat na pakpak.
And every one had four faces, and every one of them had four wings.
7 Tuwid ang kanilang mga binti, ngunit ang talampakan ng kanilang mga paa ay tulad ng mga kuko ng isang guya na makinang tulad ng pinakintab na tanso.
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 Gayon pa man, mayroon silang mga kamay ng tao sa ilalim ng kanilang mga pakpak sa lahat ng apat na dako. Sa kanilang apat, ang kanilang mga mukha at mga pakpak ay ganito:
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and as for the faces and wings of them four,
9 ang kanilang mga pakpak ay sumasagi sa mga pakpak ng kasunod na nilalang, at hindi sila lumiliko habang umuusad, sa halip, ang bawat isa ay umusad pasulong.
their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
10 Ang wangis ng kanilang mga mukha ay tulad ng mukha ng isang tao, sunod, ang mukha ng isang leon sa kanan, sunod, ang mukha ng isang toro sa kaliwa, at sa huli, ang mukha ng isang agila.
As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man; and they four had the face of a lion on the right side; and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four had also the face of an eagle.
11 Ganyan ang kanilang mga mukha, at ang kanilang mga pakpak ay nakabuka sa itaas, upang ang bawat nilalang ay may pares ng mga pakpak na nakasagi sa pakpak ng isa pang nilalang, at isang pares din ng mga pakpak ang nakatakip sa kanilang mga katawan.
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.
12 Ang bawat isa ay umusad pasulong, upang saanman sila utusang pumunta ng Espiritu, pumunta sila nang hindi lumilingon.
And they went every one straight forward; whither the spirit was to go, they went; they turned not when they went.
13 Tulad ng mga nagliliyab na baga ang mga buhay na nilalang, o tulad ng mga sulo, may maliwanag na apoy din na gumagalaw kasama ng mga nilalang, at may mga kumikislap na kidlat.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like coals of fire, burning like the appearance of torches; it flashed up and down among the living creatures; and there was brightness to the fire, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
14 Mabilis na gumagalaw nangpabalik-balik ang mga buhay na nilalang, at mukha silang kidlat!
And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 At tumingin ako sa mga buhay na nilalang, may isang gulong sa ilalim na nasa tabi ng mga buhay na nilalang.
Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel at the bottom hard by the living creatures, at the four faces thereof.
16 Ito ang wangis at balangkas ng mga gulong: ang bawat gulong ay tulad ng berilyo, at magkakatulad lahat ang apat, tila binabagtas ng isang gulong ang isa pang gulong.
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 within a wheel.
17 Kapag gumulong ang mga gulong, nakakapunta sila sa bawat direksyon nang hindi lumilingon.
When they went, they went toward their four sides; they turned not when they went.
18 Para naman sa mga gilid naman ng mga ito, matataas at nakakatakot, sapagkat ang mga gilid ay puno ng mga mata paikot!
As for their rings, they were high and they were dreadful; and they four had their rings full of eyes round about.
19 Kapag gumagalaw ang mga buhay na nilalang, gumagalaw ang mga gulong sa tabi nila. Kapag pumapaitaas ang mga buhay na nilalang mula sa lupa, pumapaitaas din ang mga gulong.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went hard by them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the bottom, the wheels were lifted up.
20 Saanman pumupunta ang Espiritu, pumupunta sila kung saan tumutungo ang Espiritu, pumapaitaas sa tabi nila ang mga gulong, sapagkat ang espiritu ng mga buhay na nilalang ay nasa mga gulong.
Whithersoever the spirit was to go, as the spirit was to go thither, so they went; and the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
21 Kapag gumagalaw ang mga nilalang, gumagalaw rin ang mga gulong, at kapag tumitigil ang mga nilalang, tumitigil ang mga gulong, kapag pumapaitaas mula sa lupa ang mga nilalang, pumapaitaas ang mga gulong sa tabi nila, sapagkat ang espiritu ng mga buhay na nilalang ay nasa mga gulong.
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 beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
22 Sa ibabaw ng mga ulo ng mga buhay na nilalang ay may tulad ng isang napakalaking pabilog na bubong, tulad ito ng kahanga-hangang kristal na nakabuka sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo.
And over the heads of the living creatures there was the likeness of a firmament, like the colour of the terrible ice, stretched forth over their heads above.
23 Sa ilalim ng pabilog na bubong, ang bawat isa sa mga pakpak ng nilalang ay nakabuka nang tuwid at nakasagi sa mga pakpak ng isa pang nilalang. Ang bawat buhay na nilalang ay may isang pares din upang takpan ang kanilang mga sarili—ang bawat isa ay may isang pares upang takpan ang kaniyang sariling katawan.
And under the firmament were their wings conformable the one to the other; this one of them had two which covered, and that one of them had two which covered, their bodies.
24 At narinig ko ang tunog ng kanilang mga pakpak! Tulad ng ingay ng rumaragasang tubig. Tulad ng tinig ng Makapangyarihan. Kapag gumagalaw sila, nagkakaroon ng tunog ng isang bagyong ulan. Tulad ito ng tunog ng isang hukbo. Kapag tumitigil sila, ibinababa nila ang kanilang mga pakpak.
And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of a host; when they stood, they let down their wings.
25 At isang tinig ang nagmula sa itaas ng pabilog na bubong sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo kapag tumitigil sila at ibinababa ang kanilang mga pakpak.
For, when there was a voice above the firmament that was over their heads, as they stood, they let down their wings.
26 Sa itaas ng pabilog na bubong sa ibabaw ng kanilang mga ulo ay may anyo ng isang tronong tulad ng safiro, at ang nasa trono ay ang wangis ng isang tulad ng tao.
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 a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.
27 Nakita ko ang isang anyong tulad ng nagliliwanag na metal na may apoy sa loob mula sa kaniyang baywang pataas, mula sa kaniyang baywang pababa ay tulad ng apoy at liwanag ang nasa buong paligid.
And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him.
28 Tulad ito ng isang bahagharing lumilitaw sa mga ulap sa isang maulang araw—at tulad ng maliwanag na ilaw ang pumapaligid dito. Nagpakita ito tulad ng anyo ng kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh. Nang makita ko ito, nagpatirapa ako, at narinig ko ang isang tinig na nagsasalita.
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 spoke.
