Hesekiel 10
1 Mehwɛeɛ, na mehunuu biribi te sɛ aboɔdemmoɔ ahennwa a ɛhoho ntrɛmu a ɛwɔ Kerubim apampam no so.
And saw and behold in the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubims, there appeared over them as it were the sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no sɛ, “Kɔhyɛ ntwahonan a ɛwɔ Kerubim ase no mu. Fa egyasramma nsabuo firi Kerubim no mu na to pete kuropɔn no so.” Megu so rehwɛ no, ɔkɔhyɛɛ mu.
And he spoke to the man, that was clothed with linen, and said: Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubims and fill thy hand with the coals of fire that are between the cherubims, and pour them out upon the city. And he went in, in my sight:
3 Afei na Kerubim no gyinagyina asɔredan no anafoɔ fam ɛberɛ a ɔbarima no kɔhyɛnee mu no, na omununkum kɔhyɛɛ emu fam adihɔ hɔ ma.
And the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.
4 Na Awurade animuonyam pagyaa ne ho firii Kerubim no atifi kɔɔ asɔredan no aboboano. Omununkum no yɛɛ asɔredan no ma na Awurade animuonyam hyerɛn yɛɛ adihɔ hɔ ma.
And the glory of the Lord was lifted up from above the cherub to the threshold of the house: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
5 Kerubim ntaban no nnyegyeeɛ no, na wɔte wɔ mfikyire fam adihɔ hɔ te sɛ Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn nne, ɛberɛ a ɔrekasa.
And the sound of the wings of the cherubims was heard even to the outward court as the voice of God Almighty speaking.
6 Ɛberɛ a Awurade hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no sɛ, “Yi egyasramma firi ntwahonan no mu, firi Kerubim no ase no,” ɔbarima no kɔɔ mu kɔgyinaa ntwahonan no baako ho.
And when he had commanded the man that was clothed with linen, saying: Take fire from the midst of the wheels that are between the cherubims: he went in and stood beside the wheel,
7 Afei, Kerubim no mu baako tenee ne nsa hyɛɛ egyasramma a ɛwɔ wɔn mu no mu. Ɔfaa mu bi de hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no nsam, na ɔno nso gyeeɛ de firii adi.
And one cherub stretched out his arm from the midst of the cherubims to the fire that was between the cherubims: and he took, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it and went forth.
8 (Na wɔhunu biribi te sɛ onipa nsa wɔ Kerubim no ntaban ase.)
And there appeared in the cherubims the likeness of a man’s hand under their wings.
9 Mehwɛeɛ, na mehunuu ntwahonan ɛnan a baako biara gyina Kerubim nkyɛn, na ntwahonan no pa yerɛ yerɛ te sɛ sikabereɛboɔ.
And I saw, and behold there were four wheels by the cherubims: one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was to the sight like the chrysolite stone:
10 Sɛdeɛ ɛteɛ no deɛ, na ntwahonan no nyinaa sesɛ; ebiara wɔ ntwahonan foforɔ hyɛ mu.
And as to their appearance, all four were alike: as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
11 Sɛ wɔnam a, wɔn nyinaa de wɔn anim kyerɛ deɛ Kerubim baako de nʼanim bɛkyerɛ. Ntwahonan no nnane wɔn ho ɛberɛ a Kerubim no nam. Kerubim no kɔ tee deɛ etire no anim kyerɛ a ɔnnane ne ho.
And when they went, they went by four ways: and they turned not when they went: but to the place whither they first turned, the rest also followed, and did not turn back.
12 Wɔn ho nyinaa, wɔn akyi, wɔn nsa ne wɔn ntaban nyinaa, aniwa tuatua ho. Saa ara na ntwahonan ɛnan no nso teɛ.
And their whole body, and their necks, and their hands, and their wings, and the circles were full of eyes, round about the four wheels.
13 Metee sɛ wɔrefrɛ ntwahonan no, “kyinhyia ntwahonan.”
And these wheels he called voluble, in my hearing.
14 Kerubim no mu biara wɔ anim ɛnan. Anim baako te sɛ kerub, deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu te sɛ onipa anim, deɛ ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa te sɛ gyata anim, deɛ ɛtɔ so ɛnan te sɛ ɔkɔdeɛ anim.
And every one had four faces: one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face, the face of a man: and in the third was the face of a lion: and in the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Afei, Kerubim no pagyaa wɔn ho. Yeinom na na wɔyɛ ateasefoɔ a na mahunu wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no.
And the cherubims were lifted up: this is the living creature that I had seen by the river Chobar.
16 Sɛ Kerubim no keka wɔn ho a, ntwahonan a ɛwowɔ wɔn ho no nso keka wɔn ho; na sɛ Kerubim no trɛtrɛ wɔn ntaban mu pagya wɔn ho kɔ ewiem a, ntwahonan no ka wɔn ho ara.
And when the cherubims went, the wheels also went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings, to mount up from the earth, the wheels stayed not behind, but were by them.
17 Sɛ Kerubim no gyinagyina dinn a, ntwahonan no nso gyinagyina dinn, na sɛ Kerubim no pagya wɔn ho a, wɔne wɔn pagya wɔn ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ateasefoɔ no honhom wɔ wɔn mu.
When they stood, these stood: and when they were lifted up, these were lifted up: for the spirit of life was in them.
18 Afei, Awurade animuonyam no firii asɔredan no aboboano na ɛkɔgyinaa Kerubim no atifi.
And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple: and stood over the cherubims.
19 Merehwɛ no, Kerubim no trɛtrɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu pagyaa wɔn ho firii fam na ntwahonan no ne wɔn kɔɔeɛ. Wɔkɔgyinaa Awurade efie ɛpono a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no ano, na na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam wɔ wɔn atifi.
And the cherubims lifting up their wings, were raised from the earth before me: and as they went out, the wheels also followed: and it stood in the entry of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
20 Yeinom ne ateasefoɔ a na mahunu wɔn wɔ Israel Onyankopɔn ase wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no, na medwene hunuiɛ sɛ wɔyɛ Kerubim.
This is the living creature, which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chobar: and I understood that they were cherubims.
21 Wɔn mu biara wɔ animu ɛnan ne ataban ɛnan na biribi a ɛte sɛ onipa nsa wowɔ wɔn ntaban ase.
Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man’s hand was under their wings.
22 Wɔn nyinaa animu te sɛ deɛ na mahunu wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no. Wɔn mu biara kɔ nʼanim tee.
And as to the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces which I had seen by the river Chobar, and their looks, and the impulse of every one to go straight forward.
