Книга пророка Иезекииля 10
1 И видех, и се, верху тверди сущия над главою Херувимов, яко камень сапфировый, подобие престола на них.
Then I looked, and, behold, over the firmament that was above the head of the cherubs [there was] a likeness of a throne over them, as a sapphire stone.
2 И рече к мужу облеченому во утварь: вниди среде колес, яже под Херувимами, и наполни горсти твоя углия огненнаго от среды Херувимов и разсыпли на град. И вниде предо мною:
And he said to the man clothed with the [long] robe, Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubs, and fill thine hands with coals of fire from between the cherubs, and scatter [them] over the city. And he went in my sight.
3 Херувими же стояху одесную дому, внегда вхождаше муж, и облак наполни двор внутренний.
And the cherubs stood on the right hand of the house, as the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 И воздвижеся слава Господня от Херувимов в непокровение дому, и наполни дом облак, и двор наполнися сияния славы Господни:
Then the glory of the Lord departed from the cherubs to the porch of the house; and the cloud filled the house, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
5 и глас крил Херувимских слышашеся даже до внешняго двора, якоже глас Бога Саддаи глаголющаго.
And the sound of the cherubs' wings was heard as far as the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God speaking.
6 И бысть внегда заповедаше мужу облеченому во утварь святую, глаголя: возми огнь от среды колес, иже среде Херувимов. И вниде и ста близ колес.
And it came to pass, when he gave a charge to the man clothed with the sacred robe, saying, Take fire from between the wheels from between the cherubs, that he went in, and stood near the wheels.
7 И простре Херувим руку свою в средину огня сущаго среде Херувимов, и взя и вдаде в руце оболченому во утварь святую, и взя и изыде.
And he stretched forth his hand into the midst of the fire that was between the cherubs, and took [thereof], and put [it] into the hands of the man clothed with the sacred robe: and he took [it], and went out.
8 И видех Херувимы, и се, подобие рук человечих под крилы их.
And I saw the cherubs [having] the likeness of men's hands under their wings.
9 И видех, и се, четыри колеса стояху держащеся Херувимов: коло едино держашеся единаго Херувима, и коло едино держашеся другаго Херувима: взор же колес якоже взор камения анфракса:
And I saw, and behold, four wheels stood by the cherubs, one wheel by each cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the appearance of a carbuncle stone.
10 и взор их подобие едино четырем, акибы было коло в колеси:
And [as for] their appearance, [there was] one likeness to the four, as if there should be a wheel in the midst of a wheel.
11 внегда идяху, на четыри части их идяху, и не обращахуся внегда идяху: яко, на неже место аще зряше начало едино, идяху (вслед его), и не обращахуся, внегда ити им.
When they went, they went on their four sides; they turned not when they went, for whichever way the first head looked, they went; and they turned not as they went.
12 Вся же телеса их и хребты их, и руце их и крила их и колеса полна очес окрест четырех колес.
And their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about the four wheels.
13 Колесам же сим воззвася гелгель, слышащу мне.
And these wheels were called Gelgel in my hearing.
14 Четыри же лица коемуждо их: единому лице херувимле, лице же другому лице человечо, третие же лице львово и четвертое лице орлее.
15 И взяшася Херувими: сие есть животное, еже видех на реце Ховар.
And the cherubs were the same living creature which I saw by the river of Chobar.
16 И егда идяху Херувими, идяху и колеса их, и сии держахуся их: и внегда воздвизаху Херувими крила своя, еже возвыситися от земли, не обращахуся колеса их, и та держахуся их:
And when the cherubs went, the wheels went, and they were close to them: and when the cherubs lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, their wheels turned not.
17 егда стояху тии, стояху и они, и внегда возвышахуся тии, возвышахуся и они с ними: зане дух жизни бе в них.
When they stood, [the wheels] stood; and when they mounted up, [the wheels] mounted up with them: because the spirit of life was in them.
18 И изыде слава Господня от непокровения дому и взыде на Херувимы.
Then the glory of the Lord departed from the house, and went up on the cherubs.
19 И воздвигоша Херувими крила своя и возвысишася от земли предо мною: егда изыдоша тии, и колеса держахуся их: и сташа над преддверием врат Дому Господня, яже противу востоку, и слава Господа Бога Израилева бе над ними свыше.
And the cherubs lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went forth, the wheels were also beside them, and they stood at the entrance of the front gate of the house of the Lord; and the glory of the God of Israel was upon them above.
20 Сие животное есть, еже видех под Богом Израилевым на реце Ховар, и познах, яко Херувими суть.
This is the living creature which I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chobar; and I knew that they were cherubs.
21 Четыри лица единому, и четыри крила единому, и подобие рук человечих под крилы их.
Each one [had] four faces, and each one [had] eight wings; and under their wings was the likeness of men's hands.
22 И подобие лиц их: сия лица суть, яже видех под славою Бога Израилева при реце Ховар воззрение их: и сия кождо прямо лицу своему идяху.
And [as for] the likeness of their faces, these are the [same] faces which I saw under the glory of the God of Israel by the river of Chobar: and they went each straight forward.
