< Ezekiel 1 >

1 Ke len aklimekosr in malem akakosr in yac aktolngoul, nga Ezekiel, sie mwet tol, wen natul Buzi, wi mwet Jew ma sruoh su muta sisken Infacl Chebar in acn Babylonia. Kusrao ikakla ac nga liye sie aruruma ke God.
Now in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was amongst the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 (Yac aklimekosrla tukun utukla Tokosra Jehoiachin nu ke sruoh.)
In the fifth of the month, which was the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity,
3 Ingo, sisken Infacl Chebar in acn Babylonia, nga tuh lohng ke LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik, ac nga pulakin ku lal oan fuk.
the LORD’s word came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the LORD’s hand was there on him.
4 Nga ngetak ac liye sie fohru tuku epang me. Sarom uh sarmelik liki sie pukunyeng lulap, ac yen nukewa rauneak arulana saromrom. Yen ma sarom uh sarmelik we, oasr sie ma saromrom oana osra bronze.
I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came out of the north: a great cloud, with flashing lightning, and a brightness around it, and out of the middle of it as it were glowing metal, out of the middle of the fire.
5 Infulwen paka sac nga liye ma orekla akosr su moul, su oana luman mwet,
Out of its centre came the likeness of four living creatures. This was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.
6 tusruktu kais sie selos oasr muta akosr ac posohksok akosr.
Everyone had four faces, and each one of them had four wings.
7 Nialos suwohs, ac falkalos oana falken cow mukul uh, su saromrom oana bronze aksaromromyeyukla.
Their feet were straight feet. The sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot; and they sparkled like burnished bronze.
8 Sayen muta akosr ac posohksok akosr, oasr pac kais sie poun mwet ye posohksok kaclos.
They had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides. The four of them had their faces and their wings like this:
9 Kais sie ma moul inge elos foralik ac asroelik luo sin posohksok kaclos in akupasrila orala maspang se. Ke elos ac mukuila elos ac tukeni mukuiyak, a manolos tiana forla.
Their wings were joined to one another. They didn’t turn when they went. Each one went straight forward.
10 Kais sie ma moul akosr inge oasr muta akosr kac su tiana oana sie: mutun mwet se nget nu meet, mutun lion nget nu layot, mutun cow mukul nget nu lasa, ac mutun eagle nget nu tok.
As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man. The four of them had the face of a lion on the right side. The four of them had the face of an ox on the left side. The four of them also had the face of an eagle.
11 Luo posohksok ke kais sie ma moul inge asrosrelik in apusralila nu ke ma soko siska lac lac, ac posohksol lula elos sang afinya manolos.
Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. Two wings of each one touched another, and two covered their bodies.
12 Kais soko ma moul inge nget nu ke eng akosr lun faclu, ouinge u sac ku in fahsr nu yen nukewa, ac tia enenu in forla.
Each one went straight forward. Where the spirit was to go, they went. They didn’t turn when they went.
13 Inmasrlon ma moul inge oasr ma se oana sukan sul soko su mukuiwot mukuime pacl nukewa, ac e kac uh ngutyak, pusrukla sarom.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches. The fire went up and down amongst the living creatures. The fire was bright, and lightning went out of the fire.
14 Ma moul inge yuwot yume, wi na mui lun sarom uh.
The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 Ke nga ngetang nu ke ma orekla moul akosr inge, nga liyauk wheel akosr pusralla infohk uh, kais sie wheel oan sisken kais soko selos.
Now as I saw the living creatures, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it.
16 Wheel inge kewa oana sie — kais sie selos saromrom oana luman wek saok uh, ac kais sie wheel oasr pac sie wheel pitukelik loac.
The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. The four of them had one likeness. Their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
17 Ouinge wheel uh ku in mukui nu ke eng akosr inge kewa.
When they went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn when they went.
18 Sisken acn raun ke wheel inge nwanala ke atronmuta.
As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and the four of them had their rims full of eyes all around.
19 Pacl nukewa ma moul inge ac mukuila, na wheel inge ac mukuiyak pac, ac ma moul inge fin sohkak liki faclu, na wheel inge ac wi pac sohkak.
When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 Ma moul inge som nu yen nukewa elos lungse som nu we, ac wheel inge ac wi pacna, mweyen ma moul uh pa leum faclos.
Wherever the spirit was to go, they went. The spirit was to go there. The wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
21 Ouinge pacl nukewa ma moul inge mukuila ku tui ku sohkak nu yen engyeng uh, na wheel inge ac oru oapana.
When those went, these went. When those stood, these stood. 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 Lucng liki sifen ma moul inge, oasr sie ma raun oana luman sie pol lulap oankiyuki, orekla ke crystal na saromrom.
Over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of an expanse, like an awesome crystal to look at, stretched out over their heads above.
23 Ma moul inge tu ye ma raun sac, ac kais sie selos asroela luo sin posohksok lal ah nu ke ma moul ma tu siskal kewa. Posohksok luo ngia el sang afinya manol.
Under the expanse, their wings were straight, one towards the other. Each one had two which covered on this side, and each one had two which covered their bodies on that side.
24 Ke pacl elos sohksok, nga lohng pusren posohksok lalos uh oana ngirngir lun noa tok uh, ku oana pusren un mwet mweun lulap, ku oana pusren God Kulana. Ac ke pacl elos ac tui tila sohk, elos ac orani posohksok lalos,
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 an army. When they stood, they let down their wings.
25 tusruktu srakna oasr pusra se tuku lucng liki ma raun se fin sifalos.
There was a voice above the expanse that was over their heads. When they stood, they let down their wings.
26 Lucng liki ma raun sac oasr ma se oan we oana luman tron se orekla ke eot sapphire, ac oasr sie ma su muta fin tron sac su oana luman mwet se.
Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. On the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it above.
27 Infulwalyak nu lucng oana bronze saromrom infulwen sie e, ac infulwali nu ten oana luman firirrir lun e uh. Acn nukewa rauneak arulana kalem,
I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him.
28 ac tuhn nukewa ke lelakem uh oasr kac. Kalem se inge, su arulana saromrom, akkalemye lah LEUM GOD El oasr we. Ke nga liye ma se inge, nga putati ac oankiyuki infohk uh. Na nga lohng pusra se kaskas.
As the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the LORD’s glory. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
